To study the effect of laws affecting small business to determine whether those laws impede the creation of small businesses or create economic damages for any small business group that may jeopardize the small business group's continuation in the marketplace or its valuable contribution to the economic growth of this State. The study may be conducted in cooperation with the department or agency administering the law whose effect is the subject of the study. A general study of the laws affecting the creation of small businesses in this State may be undertaken by the Department and the results reported to the Governor and the General Assembly. An economic impact review may be made at least every 2 years, and pertinent information shall be gathered from the business segment affected to determine whether the laws need amendment to relieve business losses while retaining the substance of the legislation, or whether the original purpose has been accomplished and the laws should be repealed. The review shall be reported to the Governor, the General Assembly, and the administrating State agency, as well as to the business associations most directly representing the business group involved. The Director may appoint a task force to assist the Department in conducting the studies and reviews required under this Section.
