Arranged chronologically by date of hearing and location.

Access Information

Audiovisual materials have been moved to a cold-storage vault for preservation purposes. Hearings are principally focused on specific bills and amendments. The committee often held joint hearings with the Assembly Public Safety Committee. These joint hearings largely focused on various propositions on the ballot and the subsequent effect on the California penal code.
The Hearing Files also include four file folders (LP373:1451-1454) which contain recording logs and/or agendas that accompany some of the hearing materials. Logs and/or agendas are arranged chronologically by legislative session.
