  SENATOR TORGERSON  brought  SCR 14  and  SB 163  before the committee        
 the first order of business.                                                  
                                                                               
  SENATOR KELLY  noted that the Administration, as well as the House,          
 are in support of SCR 14 and SB 163 and that the House Finance                
 Committee is currently working on committee substitutes.  He                  
 requested that the committee pass both pieces of legislation out of           
 committee so that they can be worked on in Senate Finance and then            
 their work will then be completed by the time the House legislation           
 passes over to the Senate.                                                    
                                                                               
  SENATOR TORGERSON  pointed out, for the record, that both pieces of          
 legislation have a referral to the Health, Education and Social               
 Services Committee before going to the Finance Committee.                     
                                                                               
  SENATOR KELLY  moved that SCR 14 be passed out of committee with             
 individual recommendations.  Hearing no objection, it was so                  
 ordered.
