            Governor and the General Assembly on the number of state jobs eliminated in the immediately
            preceding fiscal year due to the privatization of commercial activities to a commercial source.

            "Commercial activities" means an activity performed by or for state government that is not an
            inherently governmental activity and that may feasibly be obtained from a commercial source at

            any business or other concern that is eligible for a contract award in accordance with the Virginia
            Public Procurement Act(§ 2.2-4300 et seq.).

            Agencies reported to the Department of Human Resource Management that the following four
            positions were privatized during fiscal year 2020:

                 •    J Sargeant Reynolds Community College reported privatizing one Trades Technician III
                      position to RL Painting & Carpentry Inc., resulting in one layoff.
                 •    Sussex One State Prison reported privatizing one Trades Technician IV, one Trades
                      Manager I, and one Equipment Service Repair Tech I position to CGL Facility
