  HOUSE BILL NO. 293                                                           
                                                                               
       An Act extending the termination date of the Council on                 
       Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault.                                   
                                                                               
  Co-chair Pearce  directed  that HB  293  be brought  on  for                 
  discussion and referenced  Amendment No.  1.  She  explained                 
  that Amendment  No. 1 would  change the extension  date from                 
  June 30,  1997, to June 30,  1998.  The  Co-chair noted past                 
  political  wrangling concerning the  council and voiced need                 
  for  an  additional wind-down  year  prior to  future sunset                 
  review.   Co-chair Frank concurred and MOVED for adoption of                 
  Amendment No. 1.  No objection having been raised, Amendment                 
  No. 1 was ADOPTED.  Senator Rieger MOVED that SCS for HB 293                 
  (Finance)    pass    from    committee    with    individual                 
  recommendations.  No  objection having  been raised, SCS  HB
 (Finance)  was REPORTED  OUT of  committee  with a  zero                 
  fiscal note from  the Dept. of  Public Safety.  All  members                 
  present  signed  the  committee  report  with  a  "do  pass"                 
  recommendation.  Senator Jacko was absent and did not sign.
