An Act To Amend Title 30 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Business Licenses. [HB-213]
This Bill requires all Delaware-licensed businesses for which a business license is required to make such license information part of their advertising. The lack of such information would help prevent out-of-state and/or unlicensed businesses from operating in Delaware and assist in identifying businesses that have not complied with the State licensing requirement.

An Act To Amend Title 29 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Reports In Electronic Format To The Delaware General Assembly. [HB-222]
This Act provides that any periodic report that a State agency, board, committee and/or commission is required by law to report to the General Assembly may, alternatively, be provided to Members of the General Assembly in electronic format. This Act is very likely to result in significant cost-savings as well as significantly reduce the volume of materials that must be disposed of or recycled by State government.
