Today's session in Lodi comes in the wake of recent computer crashes that affected operations at several state agencies, most noticeably the Motor Vehicle Commission.
Crashes on July 11 and 23 kept MVC workers idle and caused long lines and frustrated patrons across the state.
The panel will attempt to determine if the crashes were isolated incidents or representative of deeper problems.
