HB 231-EXTEND BOARD OF PAROLE
9:03:33 AM
CHAIR STOLTZE announced the consideration of HB 231.
9:04:05 AM
ESTHER MIELKE, Staff, Representative Lynn, Alaska State
Legislature, Juneau, Alaska, explained that HB 231 would extend
the Board of Parole's sunset date. She noted that the sunset
date originally was six years, but changes were made due to the
pending crime bill. She revealed that the Division of Audit
provided recommendations, but found the Board of Parole to be in
good operating order.
CHAIR STOLTZE stated that he was not sure there was a consensus
on Board of Parole and noted that improvements would be
addressed with Director Edwards. He said an amendment was before
the committee and affirmed that the intent was to have the
board's sunset date interact with the crime bill, SB 91. He
asked Senator Coghill, SB 91 sponsor, if he had any comments.
SENATOR COGHILL explained that an audit would be requested to be
done sooner because a lot of new duties were being asked from
the jail system and the Board of Parole. He surmised that a 2020
sunset date would mean an audit would be done in 2019.
CHAIR STOLTZE asked for a motion to adopt the Senate committee
substitute (SCS).
SENATOR MCGUIRE moved to adopt the work draft SCS for CSHB 231,
29-LS1138\N, as the working document.
CHAIR STOLTZE announced that hearing no objection, version N was
adopted. He declared that no other comments were heard and asked
Senator McGuire for a motion.
9:06:58 AM
SENATOR MCGUIRE moved to report SCS CSHB 231 from committee with
individual recommendations and attached fiscal note.
CHAIR STOLTZE announced that hearing no objection, SCS CSHB
231(STA) moves from committee.
