S.F. _____ H.F. _____ Section 1. Section 7A.3, subsection 1, paragraph f, Code 1 2024, is amended by striking the paragraph. 2 Sec. 2. Section 8A.204, subsection 2, paragraph b, Code 3 2024, is amended by striking the paragraph. 4 EXPLANATION 5 The inclusion of this explanation does not constitute agreement with 6 the explanation’s substance by the members of the general assembly. 7 This bill eliminates the requirement that the state 8 librarian submit a biennial report to the governor on the 9 activities of the department of administrative services (DAS) 10 relating to library services. As the eliminated provision 11 contains the only biennial report in the Code for the state 12 librarian, the bill also strikes a corresponding provision 13 applying general biennial reporting requirements to the state 14 librarian. 15 Under Code section 8E.210, DAS is still obligated to 16 prepare an annual report of its performance, including how it 17 has reallocated resources in the previous fiscal year, for 18 submission to the department of management. 19 -1- LSB 5373DP (4) 90 sc/ns 1/ 1
