If the court lacks sufficient information to determine whether the person should be committed to institutional care or to conditional release, the court may order a predisposition investigation of the person or a supplementary mental examination, or both. Under this bill, the court may order only a predisposition investigation.

Mental illness and developmental disabilities
Under current law, DHS reimburses certain costs of services provided by a state center for the developmentally disabled. Under the community integration program for residents of state centers for the developmentally disabled (the "CIP IA" program), DHS is required to reduce the reimbursement to a center following the relocation of an individual from the center to a community setting by $325 per day. This bill eliminates the fixed amount of the reduction.
Under current law, DHS must submit to the legislature a report that describes how certain community integration programs for residents of state centers for the developmentally disabled affect state employees and DHS's efforts to redeploy state employees into vacant positions. This bill eliminates the report requirement.
