Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Assembly convened:

Section 1. Subdivision (11) of section 1-200 of the 2012 supplement to the general statutes is repealed and the following is substituted in lieu thereof (Effective from passage):

"Governmental function" [shall] does not include the mere provision of goods or services to a public agency without the delegated responsibility to administer or manage a program of a public agency.
