Employment Development Department: recession plan.

Existing law establishes the Employment Development Department within the Labor and Workforce Development Agency and sets forth its powers and duties with respect to job creation activities. Existing law requires the department to develop and implement a recession plan to prepare for an increase in unemployment insurance compensation benefits claims due to an economic recession, and to provide copies of the recession plan and updates to specified legislative committees and to the Department of Finance. This bill would require the recession plan to include a summary of the actions taken by the Employment Development Department to implement recommendations contained in the recession plan previously provided to specified legislative committees and the Department of Finance.
