Certified Business Enterprise Program Compliance and Enforcement Support Temporary Amendment Act of 2024

This bill temporarily amends the District of Columbia's Certified Business Enterprise Program to create uniform procedures for handling complaints and enforcement actions. It clarifies the distinction between formal complaints, which must be written, sworn, and notarized, and informal complaints, which can be submitted via phone, email, or in person. The legislation requires the Department to investigate all complaints unless they are dismissed as frivolous, mandates that the Department issue a written notice with a hearing request timeline before imposing penalties or revoking certifications, and establishes a public record of all formal complaints filed against certified businesses.
