The Assembly passed SB 163 on a 62-1 vote Monday, advancing a developmental-services trailer bill that would continue remote services for some settings and add data-collection requirements.
A floor-session summary described the measure as extending remote services for certain developmental-services settings while adding reporting and quality-data standards for the system. The same summary identified regional centers as among the entities affected by the bill.
SB 163 is part of the budget-related package moving through the Legislature this week. The Assembly floor summary said the bill was transmitted to the Senate after passage.
The transcript summary does not specify which remote services are covered or when the changes would take effect. It also does not include the dissenting member’s stated objection.
