Chapter 102. DELAWARE LEGISLATIVE OVERSIGHT AND SUNSET ACT
§ 10216. Termination of an agency; re-establishment.

(a) If the Committee recommends the termination of an agency and the agency is not re-established by an act of the General Assembly, the agency is automatically terminated at the end of June 30 immediately following the date of the Committee's final report.
(b) When an agency is terminated pursuant to this chapter, each lesser-included agency of the terminated agency is also terminated at the same time and under the same conditions, unless the lesser-included agency is specifically exempted from termination by the Committee or by law enacted before the end of June 30 immediately following the date of the Committee's final report.
(c) If the Committee recommends the reorganization of an agency under review or a merging of the agency with another agency, the agency under review must be terminated on the June 30 following the final report, unless prior to June 30 a bill is introduced setting forth a proposed reorganization or merger. If the bill is not enacted into law within 7 months from the date of its introduction, the agency is automatically terminated.
(d) If the Committee recommends continuance of an agency, but only upon its meeting certain conditions or making certain modifications, the agency terminates 6 months from the date of the final report or on the termination date recommended by the Committee, whichever is later, unless the conditions have been met or the modifications have been made to the satisfaction of the Committee.
(e) A bill to re-establish an agency that has been recommended for termination or reorganization must relate only to that specific agency, and the name of the affected agency must be set forth in the title of the bill.
