Modify Third Trooper School Timing (416 #1c) General Assembly Adjustment

The reduction reflects a delay of the third trooper school funded in the budget until FY 2028, to allow time for the Department to provide additional information on personnel expenditures and staffing level options. Language establishes reporting requirements and a quarterly meeting requirement related to VSP's expenditures. The amendment also requires VSP, through the Department of Planning and Budget, to contract with an independent entity to conduct a comprehensive audit of their budget and for the Secretary of Public Safety and Homeland Security to submit a report based on the results of the audit no later than November 1, 2026. Changes shall be made upon enrolling to separate the language amendments into Items 415 and 416.
