The act implements the recommendations of the department of regulatory agencies' sunset review and report on the education data advisory committee (EDAC) by continuing the committee indefinitely. EDAC is granted authority to designate whether a data reporting request is mandatory, required to achieve a benefit, or voluntary. If there is a difference in designation between EDAC's determination and that of the department of education, the state board of education will hold a public hearing on the issue. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
