What it does
Existing law, the Dymally-Alatorre Bilingual Services Act, requires every state agency, except as specified, that is directly involved in the furnishing of information or the rendering of services to the public whereby contact is made with a substantial number of non-English speaking people, to employ a sufficient number of qualified bilingual persons in public contact positions. Existing law also requires that any materials explaining services available to the public be translated into any non-English language spoken by a substantial number of the public served by the agency. Existing law imposes specified reporting requirements related to these provisions.
