This bill proposes the repeal of several sections of the West Virginia Code, specifically 5A-3A-1 through 5A-3A-6, which pertain to the establishment and operation of the Central Nonprofit Coordinating Agency and Committee for the Purchase of Commodities and Services from the Handicapped. The intent of the legislation is to eliminate the requirements associated with the purchase of certain commodities and services from handicapped individuals, effectively dissolving the committee responsible for overseeing these transactions.
By repealing these sections, the bill aims to streamline the purchasing process for commodities and services, removing the specific mandates that currently exist for engaging with handicapped service providers. This legislative change reflects a shift in policy regarding how the state approaches procurement in relation to handicapped individuals, potentially allowing for a more flexible and less regulated purchasing environment.
