Bill > HB4368

This bill amends the Domestic Violence Fatality Review Act to adjust reporting deadlines and quorum requirements for the Statewide Committee, which is a group responsible for reviewing domestic violence-related deaths and making recommendations for prevention. Specifically, the bill changes the quorum needed to conduct official business from a fixed number of 7 voting members to a simple majority of the voting members, meaning more than half of those present and eligible to vote. It also pushes back the deadline for the Statewide Committee's annual report to September 1st from March 1st, and the deadline for its biennial report (a report issued every two years) to June 1st from April 1st of odd-numbered years. These changes aim to streamline the committee's operations and ensure timely reporting on efforts to reduce domestic violence fatalities.
