Employees Association testified in support of this measure. The Department of Human Resources Development commented on this measure.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Changing the date upon which this Act shall take effect to July 1, 2010, to facilitate further discussion; and
(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive changes for purposes of clarity, consistency, and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 18, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 18, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, and be placed on the calendar for Third Reading.
