The bill proposes a legislative management study focused on grant funding for emergency services and public safety during the 2025-26 interim. The study aims to explore various aspects of grant funding, including the necessary amount, potential funding sources, eligibility criteria for entities seeking grants, types of expenses that could be reimbursed, the appropriate agency to oversee the grant program, and the establishment of a grant program oversight committee.

The findings and recommendations from this study, along with any necessary legislation to implement these recommendations, will be reported to the seventieth legislative assembly. This initiative reflects a commitment to enhancing support for emergency services and public safety through structured funding mechanisms.
