The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6204, aims to amend section 10-76g of the general statutes to mandate that the state fully fund the costs associated with special education. Additionally, the bill seeks to modify part V of chapter 164 of the general statutes by establishing a neutral state panel tasked with making decisions regarding special education placements and determinations.

Furthermore, the bill proposes to eliminate the existing requirement that either a parent or guardian or a local or regional board of education must meet a burden of proof for such placements or determinations. This change is intended to streamline the process and ensure that decisions regarding special education are made fairly and without undue burden on families or educational institutions.
