Relating to certain required reports prepared by state agencies and other governmental entities. |
SB 80 would make a multitude of changes to various government reporting requirements with these to take note of:
In general we support reporting requirements because they help keep government accountable. However, not all reporting requirements are beneficial if they happen to be outdated or redundant. Each year the Texas State Library and Archives Commission surveys state agencies for reporting requirements that are redundant and do not contain helpful information. This bill works in conjunction to abolish these redundant requirements, which improves the efficiency of government. We support SB 80.
