This bill aims to streamline state governance by repealing several committees and commissions, as well as modifying the membership terms of the New Hampshire Rare Disease Advisory Council. Specifically, it removes the requirement that members of the advisory council on child care be comprised of house and senate members, and it eliminates the restriction that no member of the New Hampshire Rare Disease Advisory Council can serve more than two full consecutive terms. The terms for council members will now be set at three years, aligning legislative members' terms with their respective office terms.
Additionally, the bill repeals a total of 17 statutes related to various commissions and committees, including those focused on public health services, offshore wind industry development, and charitable gaming laws. The amendments and repeals are intended to reduce redundancy and improve the efficiency of state operations. The act will take effect immediately upon passage.
