AN  ACT  to provide for the elimination of burdensome reporting require-
  ments imposed on school districts and local governments

  THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section  1.  Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, any
provision of statute or regulation that requires a local  government  or
school  district to submit a report to a state agency or authority shall
expire and be deemed repealed on April 1, 2016; provided, however,  that
all provisions of such statutes and regulations other than such specific
reporting requirements shall be unaffected by the repeal of such report-
ing requirements and remain in full force and effect.
  S  2. Every state agency and authority shall prepare and submit to the
mandate relief council, on or before December 31, 2015,  a  report  that
identifies  each  report  it  receives from local governments and school
districts pursuant to statutory or regulatory requirements and, for each
such report, explains the agency's or authority's need for  the  report,
makes  a  recommendation to eliminate or continue the reporting require-
ment, and,  where  the  recommendation  is  to  continue  the  reporting
requirement,  makes additional recommendations including but not limited
to the secure electronic transmission of data directly to state agencies
and authorities to reduce the burden the reporting  requirement  imposes
on local governments and school districts.
  S 3. This act shall take effect immediately.


 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
