S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 8410 2017-2018 Regular Sessions I N A S S E M B L Y June 13, 2017 ___________ Introduced by M. of A. ABINANTI -- read once and referred to the Commit- tee on Governmental Operations AN ACT to amend the state administrative procedure act, in relation to the establishment of agency adjudication plans THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative intent. The legislature hereby finds and declares that administrative adjudication was developed to provide expert, efficient, timely and fair resolution of claims, rights and disputes before state agencies. Administrative adjudication often addresses complex scientific, technical, financial, medical, legal and related issues under the jurisdiction of state agencies with specialized knowledge, and should be a more flexible alternative to, rather than a duplication of, the civil and criminal court system. Administrative adjudication must meet due process standards and should resolve disputes in a manner that is fair and appears fair to the public. The fairness of administrative adjudication and the appearance of fairness are partic- ularly important when a state agency is a party to the administrative proceeding. To assure expert, efficient, timely and fair adjudication, hearing officers who preside at administrative hearings should be know- ledgeable, competent, impartial, objective and free from inappropriate influence. § 2. The state administrative procedure act is amended by adding a new section 309 to read as follows: § 309. AGENCY ADJUDICATION PLANS. 1. AS USED IN THIS SECTION: (A) "AGENCY" SHALL MEAN ANY DEPARTMENT, BOARD, BUREAU, COMMISSION, DIVISION, OFFICE, COUNCIL, COMMITTEE OR OFFICER OF THE STATE AUTHORIZED BY LAW TO MAKE FINAL DECISIONS IN ADJUDICATORY PROCEEDINGS BUT SHALL NOT INCLUDE THE GOVERNOR, AGENCIES CREATED BY INTERSTATE COMPACT OR INTERNA- TIONAL AGREEMENT, THE DEPARTMENT OF AUDIT AND CONTROL, THE DEPARTMENT OF LAW, THE DIVISION OF MILITARY AND NAVAL AFFAIRS TO THE EXTENT IT EXER- EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
