New Laws Effective Oct. 1st

A number of new laws passed during the 2016 Legislative Session take effect October 1, 2016. These new laws may have an impact on you, your business, or our community. Among those Public Acts that will become law on that date are the following measures that I supported: AN ACT CONCERNING THE IMPACT OF PROPOSED REGULATIONS ON SMALL BUSINESSES (PA 16-32) Requires fiscal notes by the Office of Fiscal Analysis to include an estimate of the number of businesses that would be affected by proposed legislation and an estimated fiscal impact on such businesses and, for regulatory flexibility analyses of proposed regulations, to redefine small business to include any business with two hundred fifty or fewer employees and to require additional information in such analyses.  FOR MORE DETAILS CLICK HERE. AN ACT REVISING THE REGULATION REVIEW PROCESS (PA 16-58) Requires legislative committees of the General Assembly hold agencies responsible for the periodic review of their regulations.

As always, you can contact me at (800) 842-1423 or Vincent.Candelora@housegop.ct.gov if you have any questions regarding state government. I hope this information is helpful. Sincerely, Vincent Candelora State Representative 86th General Assembly District
