A key discussion point was the need for adequate funding to support the launch of this dataset, which was emphasized by a committee member who expressed concern over the elimination of a specific appropriation from the proposed bill.

The member highlighted the importance of ensuring that necessary financial resources are allocated to effectively implement the measure. This concern reflects a broader commitment to data-driven decision-making in health and human services, underscoring the need for reliable data to inform policies and programs.
