The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6036, seeks to amend chapter 54 of the general statutes to clarify the financial responsibilities associated with transcripts in administrative proceedings. Specifically, the bill introduces new legal language that prohibits any party involved in such proceedings from being charged or held financially responsible for the costs of providing copies of the transcripts to the agency conducting the proceedings or to any third party to whom the agency has delegated its adjudicatory authority.

This legislative change aims to alleviate the financial burden on parties involved in administrative proceedings by ensuring that the costs of transcripts are borne by the agency rather than the individuals or entities participating in the proceedings. The bill does not specify any deletions from current law, focusing solely on the insertion of the new provision regarding the responsibility for transcript costs.
