Summary
(1) Existing law and the Governor's Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 2012 (GRP 2) , effective on July 3, 2012, and operative on July 1, 2013, assigns and reorganizes the functions of state government among executive officers and agencies by creating the following general agency structure in the executive branch: Business, Consumer Services, and Housing; Government Operations; Corrections and Rehabilitation; Labor and Workforce Development; California Health and Human Services; Environmental Protection; Natural Resources; and Transportation. In creating the new general agency structure, existing law and the GRP 2, abolished certain existing state entities and offices, including, among others, the Business, Transportation and Housing Agency and its secretary, and created new ones, including, but not limited to, the Transportation Agency and its secretary. This bill would generally enact the statutory changes to make conforming name changes to properly reflect the assignment and reorganization of the functions of state government among the newly established executive entities and officers, including, among others, changing the name Department of Real Estate to Bureau of Real Estate and the California Emergency Management Agency to the Office of Emergency Services. This bill would also reallocate certain duties of abolished and reorganized executive entities and officers to newly established and existing ones. This bill would specifically authorize the Governor to appoint up to 4 deputies for the Secretary of Transportation, up to 3 deputies for the Secretary of Government Operations, and up to 3 deputies for the Secretary of Business, Consumer Services, and Housing under certain conditions. (2) Existing law and the GRP 2 transfer the duties and authorities of the Department of Boating and Waterways to the Division of Boating and Waterways in the Department of Parks and Recreation and reallocate specified duties between the division and the Boating and Waterways Commission. This bill would further modify duties between the division and the commission, including, among others, removing requirements for the consent of the commission for the department to make certain transfers, loans, or grants under various programs and other proposals, as specified. (3) Existing law and the GRP 2 transfer a requirement that the Business, Transportation and Housing Agency establish small business financial development corporations to the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development. This bill would make conforming changes with respect to the transfer of this duty and transfer other duties generally related to economic development from the abolished agency to the office, as specified. (4) Existing law authorizes the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission (Energy Commission) to work with the Business, Transportation and Housing Agency to implement the program funded by federal funds allocated to, and received by, the state for energy-related projects pursuant to the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and other federal acts related to the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. This bill would authorize the Energy Commission to work instead with the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development. (5) The California Tourism Marketing Act provides for the establishment of the California Travel and Tourism Commission within the Business, Transportation and Housing Agency. This bill would remove references to the abolished agency in the act to transfer certain duties to the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development, delete obsolete provisions, and modify an established assessment rate on passenger rental cars, as specified. (6) Existing law and the GRP 2 transfer the California Film Commission and the Film California First Program from the Business, Transportation and Housing Agency to the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development. This bill would make administrative changes consistent with that transfer. (7) The GRP 2 reallocates certain licensing and regulatory functions between the California Gambling Control Commission and the Department of Justice related to gaming. This bill would reallocate additional functions among the commission and the department, including, among others, requiring the department, rather than the commission, to decide whether the payment of the annual gambling license fee is on an annual or installment basis, authorizing the department, rather than the commission, to collect certain fees, and requiring the department, rather than the commission, to administer the Charity Bingo Mitigation Fund. (8) Existing law and the GRP 2 reallocates certain duties and functions of the Business, Transportation and Housing Agency related to the small business loan guarantee program, the disaster assistance loan program, the economic adjustment assistance grant, the employment training panel, green collar jobs program, and the film industry. This bill would further reallocate the duties and functions of this abolished agency with regard to these programs and this industry. (9) Existing law requires common interest developments to submit specified information, including personal identifying information regarding the president of the association, to the Secretary of State, who is required to make the information available for governmental purposes under specified conditions to certain entities, including, among others, the Business, Transportation and Housing Agency. This bill would replace the abolished agency with the Business, Consumer Services, and Housing Agency. (10) Existing law authorizes the Secretary of Business, Transportation and Housing to prescribe specified rules and regulations relating to certain mortgage instruments. This bill would transfer the duties of the abolished officer with the Secretary of Business, Consumer Services, and Housing. (11) Existing law authorizes the Governor to, with respect to the Business, Transportation and Housing Agency, appoint a Deputy Secretary of Housing to advise that agency's secretary on housing matters. The bill would modify the Governor's authorization to appoint a Deputy Secretary of Housing Coordination to serve as the Secretary of Transportation's primary advisor on housing matters, as specified. (12) Existing law provides that, among other things, the powers and duties of the Department of Transportation include investigating and reporting to the Secretary of Business, Transportation and Housing upon the consistency between housing plans and programs and federal transportation plans and programs. This bill would instead provide that the Department of Transportation report under these circumstances to the Secretary of Transportation and the Secretary of Business, Consumer Services, and Housing, as specified. (13) Existing law requires the Director of the Office of Planning and Research to consult with the Secretary of Business, Transportation and Housing, as specified. This bill would instead require the director to consult with the Secretary of Business, Consumer Services, and Housing under these circumstances, as specified. (14) The GRP 2 reorganizes the Department of Corporations and the Department of Financial Institutions into divisions under the Department of Business Oversight, within the Business, Consumer Services, and Housing Agency. Under the GRP 2, the executive officer of the Department of Business Oversight is the Commissioner of Business Oversight, and the department's administration includes a Deputy Commissioner of Business Oversight for the Division of Corporations and a Deputy Commissioner of Business Oversight for the Division of Financial Institutions. This bill would enact statutory changes to implement the above-described organizational structure by transferring the responsibilities of the Department of Corporations and the Department of Financial Institutions to the newly established Department of Business Oversight and its Division of Corporations and Division of Financial Institutions, headed by Senior Deputy Commissioners and the Office of Credit Unions, as specified. This bill would make other conforming changes to the duties and restrictions of the Department of Business Oversight and the Commissioner of Business Oversight to include additional activities relating to the oversight and functions of corporations and financial institutions. The bill would require the Commissioner of Business Oversight to employ legal counsel and related services under specified circumstances. (15) The GRP 2 recasts the California Technology Agency as the Department of Technology within the Government Operations Agency. This bill would make various technical, nonsubstantive conforming changes to further reflect this reorganization. This bill would also designate that the Office of Technology Services and the Office of Information Security, each within the Department of Technology, is managed or under the direction of a chief. (16) This bill would become operative on July 1, 2013, except as provided. (17) This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.

(14) The GRP 2 reorganizes the Department of Corporations and the Department of Financial Institutions into divisions under the Department of Business Oversight, within the Business, Consumer Services, and Housing Agency. Under the GRP 2, the executive officer of the Department of Business Oversight is the Commissioner of Business Oversight, and the department's administration includes a Deputy Commissioner of Business Oversight for the Division of Corporations and a Deputy Commissioner of Business Oversight for the Division of Financial Institutions. This bill would enact statutory changes to implement the above-described organizational structure by transferring the responsibilities of the Department of Corporations and the Department of Financial Institutions to the newly established Department of Business Oversight and its Division of Corporations and Division of Financial Institutions, headed by Senior Deputy Commissioners and the Office of Credit Unions, as specified. This bill would make other conforming changes to the duties and restrictions of the Department of Business Oversight and the Commissioner of Business Oversight to include additional activities relating to the oversight and functions of corporations and financial institutions. The bill would require the Commissioner of Business Oversight to employ legal counsel and related services under specified circumstances. (15) The GRP 2 recasts the California Technology Agency as the Department of Technology within the Government Operations Agency. This bill would make various technical, nonsubstantive conforming changes to further reflect this reorganization. This bill would also designate that the Office of Technology Services and the Office of Information Security, each within the Department of Technology, is managed or under the direction of a chief. (16) This bill would become operative on July 1, 2013, except as provided. (17) This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
