Relating to a study by the Legislative Budget Board concerning the long-term effects of regulating tuition rates and amounts charged by public institutions of higher education.
HB 299 is a procedural bill that directs the Legislative Budget Board to conduct a study on the long-term effects of regulating tuition rates at public colleges and universities. It does not change tuition policies itself but authorizes a review of how such regulations impact higher education institutions. The bill was referred to the Higher Education committee after its initial filing and reading. No specific policy changes or affected parties are outlined in the available context, as the bill only mandates a study. (Note: Full bill text is unavailable; summary based solely on title and referral details.)
