The General Assembly Raised Bill No. 1466 establishes a task force aimed at studying issues related to consumer protection and occupational licensing. The task force will consist of various members, including appointments from the leadership of both the House and Senate, as well as the Commissioner of Consumer Protection and two appointees from the Governor. The bill outlines that members appointed from legislative leadership may include members of the General Assembly, and it mandates that all initial appointments be completed within thirty days of the bill's passage. The task force is required to hold its first meeting within sixty days of the effective date and will be supported administratively by the staff of the relevant joint standing committee.

The task force is tasked with submitting a report detailing its findings and recommendations to the appropriate joint standing committee by January 1, 2026. The bill specifies that the task force will terminate upon the submission of this report or on January 1, 2026, whichever occurs later. The new legal language introduced in this bill includes the establishment of the task force and its operational guidelines, while the bill also includes a deletion of previous formatting instructions regarding proposed deletions and additions.
