This bill proposes several updates to the current statutes regarding the responsibilities and operations of the attorney general's office. It replaces references to "his" and "he" with "the attorney general" to ensure clarity and gender neutrality in the language. Additionally, it introduces a new section that appropriates $5,000,000 from the consumer protection-consumer fraud revolving fund to the peace officers' training fund for the fiscal year 2026-2027.

Furthermore, the bill modifies the existing language concerning the attorney general's authority to organize the department and establish policies, ensuring that the attorney general has the discretion to consolidate or abolish units as deemed efficient. It also clarifies that if the attorney general is disqualified from providing legal representation for any state agency, the agency can seek external legal services without the previous stipulation that such actions are subject to lapsing provisions. Overall, these changes aim to enhance the operational efficiency of the attorney general's office and provide necessary funding for peace officer training.
