    Requires the Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Child Development and Early Education (Division), to study the allocation of child care subsidies, in particular for families that move from one county to the other. Requires evaluations of and recommendations on: (1) a statewide approach to the funding allocation for the subsidized child care program, (2) the impact of a statewide funding approach to funding on children on the waiting list, (3) mechanisms by which funding may follow an eligible child who moves to another county so that the child has uninterrupted care, (4) provisions to protect the funding for eligible children who receive subsidies in counties into which new eligible children move, and (5) any other relevant issues.

    Requires the Division to report to the Joint Legislative Oversight Committee on Health and Human Services on or before December 1, 2016.
