New Legislation Introduced
| Bill | Current Status | Sponsor | Synopsis | Title |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HA 1 to HB 286 | Passed | K. Williams | This Amendment adds the phrase "or charter school", which is missing on lines 46 and 48. | |
| HA 1 to HB 3 | Stricken | Heffernan | This Amendment replaces the Office of Management and Budget ("OMB") with the Department of Human Resources ("Department"). The Department was created last year and now oversees various responsibilities that previously belonged to OMB. This change requires the Department to establish guidelines for other state agencies to follow in granting leave under this Act and to distribute the guidelines to these state agencies. | |
| HB 293 | Committee | Briggs King | This Act replaces the prevailing wage survey method of setting the prevailing wage with a method based on payroll information currently being provided to the Department of Labor. Also, this Act removes the prevailing wage lock-in authorized by House Substitute No. 1 for House Bill No. 145 (148th General Assembly). This Act also removes the Prevailing Wage Advisory Committee (“Committee”) from the Delaware Code. The Committee was established to advise the General Assembly how the prevailing wage survey may be improved or if the survey should be eliminated. The Committee reported in January 2016 that “the best option is to continue the survey for 2016 and report back to the legislature in the future.” Because this Act replaces the prevailing wage survey, the Committee is no longer needed. Finally, this Act takes effect on January 1, 2019. | AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 29 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO PREVAILING WAGE. |
