Ex Parte Communications: The Law And Practices At Six California Boards And Commissions, California Research Bureau, Charlene Wear Simmons
Ex Parte Communications: The Law And Practices At Six California Boards And Commissions, California Research Bureau, Charlene Wear Simmons
California Agencies
Ex parte communications are made in private between an interested party in a decision-making process and an official in a decision-making position. Because they can introduce an element of bias in a decision-making process and violate basic due process requirements, state law requires that the involved officials publicly disclose ex parte communications made during adjudicative proceedings. However the legal requirements and practices for rulemaking (or "quasi-legislative) proceedings vary for the six boards and commissions analyzed for this report, and the public disclosure process evidenced in their meeting minutes is uneven.

California Constitution Revision Commission: Final Report And Recommendations To The Governor And The Legislature, California Constitution Revision Commission
California Constitution Revision Commission: Final Report And Recommendations To The Governor And The Legislature, California Constitution Revision Commission
California Agencies
Three years ago, the legislature and the governor agreed that a fundamental review of California government was imperative. The result was the creation of the 23-member California Constitution Revision Commission.
The Commission, consisting of gubernatorial and legislative appointments and selected state officers, met for the first time in May 1994. The governor and legislative leaders addressed the Commission and urged it to be bold and creative and to consider all relevant issues-however controversial. The Commission's recommendations reflect those admonitions. Thirty public meetings were held including four formal public hearings, plus five workshops and, along with the League of Women Voters, …
