No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would amend the Government code to establish the Task Force on Parent Engagement and Education Programs. The bill would abolish the Task Force on Parent Engagement and Education Programs September 1, 2019, and direct the task force to meet on a quarterly basis and provide a report to the Legislature and the Governor no later than December 1, 2018 regarding the task force's recommendations.
The bill take effect immediately upon a two-thirds vote from all members of each house or, if such a vote is not received, on September 1, 2017.
Based on the Legislative Budget Board's analysis of the entities that would compose the Task Force on Parent Engagement and Education Programs, duties and responsibilities associated with establishing the task force, meeting quarterly, and providing a report to the Legislature and the Governor could be accomplished by utilizing existing resources.
