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. 1995, H.D. 1, S.D. 2, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO ENDANGERING THE WELFARE OF A MINOR,"
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 expand the crimes of endangering the welfare of a minor in the first degree and second degree to include the illegal use of a controlled substance in the presence of a minor.
Your Committee on Conference has amended this bill by:
(1) Expanding the crimes of endangering the welfare of a minor in the first degree and second degree to include causing or permitting a minor to ingest methamphetamine, rather than illegally using a controlled substance in the presence of a minor; and
(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity, consistency, 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. 1995, H.D. 1, S.D. 2, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1995, H.D. 1, S.D. 2, C.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:
