SB 248 Connecticut Senate · 2026 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING A STUDY OF REESTABLISHING THE DUTIES, RESPONSIBILITIES AND STAFFING OF THE LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM REVIEW AND INVESTIGATIONS COMMITTEE.

SB 248 requires the Office of Legislative Management to study the feasibility of reestablishing the Legislative Program Review and Investigations Committee, including its duties, staffing needs, costs, and potential benefits. The study must be completed by January 1, 2027, and reported to the Government Oversight Committee. This bill does not reestablish the committee itself but directs a formal analysis to inform future legislative decisions. It directly affects the legislative oversight process and the committee responsible for government accountability. The bill is procedural, focusing solely on conducting a study rather than implementing policy changes.
