AN ACT CONCERNING JUVENILE JUSTICE INITIATIVES.

HB 5423 requires the executive director of the Court Support Services Division to submit a report by July 1, 2026, to judicial and appropriations committees on the previous year's usage of court support services and recommendations for expanding these services. The bill does not create new programs or change existing laws but mandates this annual report to inform future decisions about juvenile justice support resources. It directly affects the Judicial Branch's Court Support Services Division and the relevant legislative committees. This procedural bill focuses solely on requiring transparency and planning, not on implementing new policies.
