b. The Department of Human Services and the Department of Corrections shall submit the master plan and each annual update thereto concurrently to the General Assembly State Government Committee, the Senate State Government Committee, the General Assembly Appropriations Committee, and the Senate Revenue, Finance and Appropriations Committee. The master plan shall be submitted no longer than one year after the effective date of this act and each update shall be submitted annually on or before July 1.
