LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
Existing law, the Joint Exercise of Powers Act, defines “public agency” for purposes of that act to include, among others, state and local agencies, the federal government, or any federal department or agency.
This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to that definition.
