To the Honorable, the Legislature:

It is with great pleasure that I submit to you the 2009-2011Biennial Report for the Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS).

The past year has been a period of major transition for the DSPS, which was formed through the merger of the former Department of Regulation and Licensing and parts of the former Department of Commerce under 2011 Wisconsin Act 32. The first half of this year was filled with extensive planning to bring these two agencies together. During the second half of this year, the focus has shifted to implementing the new consolidated agency and developing resulting efficiencies. We look forward as an agency, in the years ahead, to providing an increased level of customer service and efficiency as our contribution to growing Wisconsin's culture for job creation.

Our biennial report is a snapshot of some of the department's recent accomplishments,as well as a preview of some of the goals and objectives we will be working toward in the near future. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Governor, members of the Legislature, our employees and stakeholders who have all been supportive of the creation of this new agency.

Sincerely,

Dave Ross

Secretary

Referred to committee on Homeland Security and State Affairs.
