What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer

Protection (DATCP) regulates retail food establishments, such as grocery stores, and

the Department of Health Services (DHS) regulates restaurants.

This bill requires DATCP and DHS to prepare a plan to consolidate their food

safety programs into one food safety program and to submit the plan to the

legislature.
