Sir:
Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the House of Representatives to the amendments proposed by the Senate in H.B. No. 2459, S.D. 2, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT MAKING EMERGENCY APPROPRIATION FOR SOCIAL SECURITY/MEDICARE EXPENSES,"
having met, and after full and free discussion, has agreed to recommend and does recommend to the respective Houses the final passage of this bill in an amended form.
The purpose of this bill is to make an emergency appropriation in the current fiscal year to pay for the State's statutorily mandated share of costs related to public employees' Social Security and Medicare expenses.
Your Committee on Conference has amended the measure by:
(1) Removing the provision stating that the emergency appropriation will exceed the general fund expenditure ceiling; and
(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for purposes of clarity and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the managers of your Committee on Conference that is attached to this report, your Committee on Conference is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2459, S.D. 2, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 2459, S.D. 2, C.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:
