Bill Summary

This bill prohibits State agencies from assessing imposing, or enforcing civil penalties on State agencies, or a division, board, bureau or office of such an agency. Under current law, there is no prohibition which would prevent a State agency from seeking penalties against an agency or an entity in an agency.

AI Summary

This bill, titled "Prohibits imposition of civil penalties on State agencies by State agencies," aims to prevent one government agency within the state from fining another. Specifically, it states that no administrative agency of the state, or any part of it like a division, board, bureau, or office, can assess, impose, or enforce a civil penalty against any other state agency or its subdivisions. This change is significant because, under current law, there's no existing prohibition that would stop an agency from seeking penalties against another agency or an entity within an agency, and this bill seeks to establish that prohibition.
