This bill introduces a new reporting requirement for all state departments that manage permitting programs related to real property. Specifically, it mandates that these departments submit an annual report by April 30 each year, starting in 2027, to key legislative leaders, including the senate president and the speaker of the house. The report must detail the previous calendar year's permitting activities, including the types of permits issued, the number of applications received, granted, denied, withdrawn, voided, and pending decisions. Additionally, it requires departments to provide information on applications that have been pending for extended periods, along with the reasons for any delays.

The new legal language is inserted into RSA 20 by adding a section (20:6-a) that outlines these reporting requirements. There are no deletions from current law mentioned in the text provided. The bill is set to take effect 60 days after its passage, which is scheduled for September 13, 2025.
