Bill > B26-0411

This bill amends the Child Fatality Review Committee Establishment Act of 2001 by replacing the phrase "human services" with "child and family services" in a specific section of the law. The change appears to update the terminology related to the committee's oversight, specifically connecting it more directly to the Child and Family Services Agency. The bill includes a standard fiscal impact statement adopting the Budget Director's assessment and specifies that it will take effect upon mayoral approval (or Council override of a potential mayoral veto) and remain in effect for up to 90 days, which is typical for emergency legislative acts in the District of Columbia. While the bill is relatively brief, it seems intended to clarify and potentially refine the language surrounding the Child Fatality Review Committee's organizational alignment and responsibilities.
