The bill proposes a legislative management study focused on child care infrastructure in North Dakota during the 2025-26 interim. The study aims to assess the current state of child care by identifying strengths, challenges, and opportunities for enhancing public policy, accountability, and investment. Key components of the study include reviewing data on the availability and affordability of child care across counties, examining public funding mechanisms for child care facilities, and evaluating licensing and registration policies to identify potential improvements.

At the conclusion of the study, the legislative management is required to report its findings and recommendations to the seventieth legislative assembly, including any necessary legislation to implement these recommendations. This initiative seeks to address the pressing issues surrounding child care in the state and promote better support for families and child care providers.
