News Laws Taking Effect October 1

This article was archived from the previous WordPress site. Formatting and media should be close, but may not match the original post perfectly.

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. CLICK HERE FOR MORE DETAILS.

As always, you can contact me at (800) 842-1423 or Dave.Yaccarino@housegop.ct.gov if you have any questions regarding state government.

I hope this information is helpful.

Sincerely,

State Representative Dave Yaccarino

87th General Assembly District
