Number 000
CHAIRMAN KELLY called the Senate Rules Committee meeting to order
at 11:25 a.m. All members were present. The first order of
business to come before the committee was SB 12.
SENATOR LEMAN moved SB 12-FOREST PRACTICES: STREAMS/TRIBUTARIES for
calendaring. There being no objection, the motion carried.
SENATOR LEMAN moved CSHJR 8(MLV)am-NATIONAL BALLISTIC MISSILE
DEFENSE SYSTEM for calendaring. CHAIRMAN KELLY interjected to take
public testimony. There being no testimony and no objection, the
motion carried.
BRETT HUBER, legislative aide to Senator Halford, sponsor of SB
3-CRIMES OF MURDER & CHILD MURDERS, described the changes made to
the committee substitute as follows. The Department of Public
Safety (DPS) expressed concern that the crimes dealt with in the
bill are not contained in the list of crimes that require
registration as a sexual offender. The committee substitute
incorporates those crimes in the sexual offender registry
requirement and makes the necessary title change. A change to
Sections 6 and 7, on page 4 and 5, is technical in nature, and adds
the crimes of conspiracy to commit murder and solicitation to
commit murder to the list of unclassified offenses and felonies.
The next change, on pages 6 and 7, in Section 11, adds AS
11.41.100(a)(3) to the definition of "aggravated sex offenses."
Section 12 adds that crime to the definition of "child kidnaping,"
and Section 13 adds that crime to the definition of "sexual
offense." Sections 14 and 15, on pages 8 and 9, split the
applicability for Sections 1 through 8 of the bill. Section 15
makes Sections 11 through 13 retroactive to 1984 regarding sexual
registration classifications. The last change is the immediate
effective date.
CHAIRMAN KELLY asked if the Administration supports CSSB 3(RLS).
ANNE CARPENETI, Assistant Attorney General in the Department of
Law, replied it does.
SENATOR LEMAN moved to adopt CSSB 3(RLS). There being no
objection, the motion carried.
SENATOR HALFORD confirmed the committee substitute requires sex
offender registration for those convicted of murder or child
murder, and makes two technical changes.
SENATOR LEMAN moved CSSB 3(RLS) from committee for calendaring.
There being no objection, the motion carried.
There being no further business to come before the committee,
CHAIRMAN KELLY adjourned the meeting at 11:46 a.m.
