Impact

The bill's technical amendment does not foreseeably alter the existing laws concerning compliance enforcement in collegiate athletics. As it stands, the Collegiate Athletic Association Compliance Enforcement Procedures Act remains intact with its foundational principles still in place. Consequently, it continues to govern the adherence of educational institutions to regulations set forth by collegiate athletic associations, thereby ensuring a degree of oversight and uniformity in how such institutions manage their athletic programs. Importantly, this change could facilitate clearer communication of the Act’s provisions among educational institutions and related stakeholders.

Summary

House Bill 0015, introduced by Rep. La Shawn K. Ford, amends the Collegiate Athletic Association Compliance Enforcement Procedures Act. The key focus of the bill is to make a technical change concerning the short title of the existing Act. This amendment is primarily administrative in nature and does not propose any substantive changes to the enforcement procedures relating to collegiate athletics. The intent behind the amendment is to ensure clarity and consistency within the legislation concerning compliance regulations for colleges and universities participating in collegiate athletics.

Contention

As a technical amendment, HB0015 is not expected to generate significant public debate or opposition, given that it does not introduce complex changes to the legislation or affect the rights of stakeholders involved in collegiate sports. The discussion surrounding the bill may primarily revolve around its administrative utility rather than substantial policy implications. Stakeholders within the educational and athletic communities may acknowledge the importance of maintaining clear legislative language, but this bill is unlikely to incite the same level of contention that could accompany more substantial legislative changes.
