The current procedure is the Grand Jury issues its report, findings and recommendations on or about June 30'. The BOS or the agency involved then has 90 days in which to file a written response. That response is during a new Grand Jury term, when most of the members are not familiar with the findings and recommendations of the prior Grand Jury.
