Such report shall include, but need not be limited to, (1) the number of lead screenings of children, (2) the number of children diagnosed with elevated blood levels, and (3) the amount of testing, abatement and management of materials containing toxic levels of lead in all premises. (b) On or before January 1, 2011, the Commissioner of Public Health shall (1) evaluate the lead screening and risk assessment conducted pursuant to sections 19a-110 and 19a-111g, and (2) report, in accordance with section 11-4a, to the joint standing committees of the General Assembly having cognizance of matters relating to public health and human services on the effectiveness of such screening and assessment, including a recommendation as to whether such screening and assessment should be continued as specified in sections 19a-110 and 19a-111g.
Under Conn. Gen. Stat. § 19a-111i, Connecticut's Commissioner of Public Health is required to submit an annual report to the General Assembly's public health and human services committees, beginning October 1, 2023, covering the state's lead poisoning prevention and control efforts from the prior calendar year. The report must address the number of children screened and diagnosed with elevated blood lead levels, as well as the extent of lead testing, abatement, and management activities across all premises. A separate, earlier reporting obligation under the same section required the Commissioner to evaluate the effectiveness of lead screening and risk assessment programs and recommend whether they should continue.

Conn. Gen. Stat. § 19a-111i establishes a state-level reporting framework that reflects Connecticut's ongoing commitment to tracking lead hazard activity across all premises, including residential rental properties. Compliant property operators generally stay current with lead abatement and management requirements under related statutes, since the data gathered from those activities feeds directly into the annual legislative report mandated by this section. Awareness of this reporting structure can help property managers understand how their lead-related compliance activities are monitored at the state level.

Conn. Gen. Stat. § 19a-111i requires Connecticut's public health commissioner to report annually to the legislature on lead poisoning prevention efforts statewide, including how many children have been screened and how much lead abatement work has been conducted in residential and other premises. Tenants concerned about lead hazards in their homes can reference this provision to understand that the state actively tracks such conditions and that their children's screening data contributes to that oversight. Those seeking to act on a potential lead hazard may consider contacting a local tenant-rights organization, the Connecticut Department of Public Health, or reviewing related provisions such as Conn. Gen. Stat. §§ 19a-110 and 19a-111g for additional protections.
