A JOINT RESOLUTION directing the Auditor of Public Accounts to study the applicable statutes, administrative regulations, and agency policies and processes that directly impact the opening and operation of licensed and certified child care services in the Commonwealth.

This resolution directs Kentucky's Auditor of Public Accounts to hire an outside vendor to study the laws, regulations, and agency policies that affect how child care services are opened and run in the state. The goal is to identify what findings and recommendations can be reported to state lawmakers by December 1, 2027. It does not change any existing rules on its own but sets up a formal review that could lead to future changes. Who it may affect: child care providers and families seeking licensed or certified child care services in Kentucky.
