   An act to repeal Section 13779 of the Penal Code, relating to law
enforcement.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 340, Jackson. Law enforcement: anti-reproductive-rights crimes.

   Existing law, the Reproductive Rights Law Enforcement Act,
requires the Attorney General to assume specified duties relating to
planning, information gathering, and analysis with respect to
anti-reproductive-rights crimes, as defined, including consultation
with specified subject matter experts. Existing law also requires the
convening of an advisory committee that is responsible for
evaluating the effectiveness of existing law. Existing law requires
the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training to develop an
optional course of training for law enforcement agencies regarding
anti-reproductive-rights crimes, as specified. Existing law provides
for the repeal of these provisions as of January 1, 2014.
   This bill would make existing law operative indefinitely.
   Because the bill would extend the operative date of provisions
that would impose reporting requirements on local governments, the
bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
   The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.
   This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates
determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state,
reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these
statutory provisions.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 13779 of the Penal Code is repealed.
  SEC. 2.  If the Commission on State Mandates determines that this
act contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement to local
agencies and school districts for those costs shall be made pursuant
to Part 7 (commencing with Section 17500) of Division 4 of Title 2 of
the Government Code.
