Sir:
Your Committee on Labor & Government Operations, to which was referred H.B. No. 564 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The
purpose of this measure is to

(1) Establish two full-time equivalent (2.0 FTE) Information Technology Specialist positions;
(2) Upgrade information technology systems, including network upgrades, and purchase and install desktop computers, workstations, and laptops; and
(3) Train personnel.
Your Committee finds that it is
critical that the Department of Human Resources Development's information
technology systems be updated to enable the Department to reliably support its
functions.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Changing the appropriation amounts to unspecified amounts;
(2) Changing the effective date to June 30, 3000, to encourage further discussion; and
(3) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity, consistency, and style.
Your Committee respectfully requests your Committee on Finance, should it deliberate on this measure, to consider an appropriation of $300,000 to establish two full-time equivalent positions and an appropriation of $2,284,850 to upgrade information technology systems within the Department of Human Resources Development.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Labor & Government Operations that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 564, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 564, H.D. 1, and be referred to your Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Labor & Government Operations,
