  Number 738                                                                   
                                                                               
  CHAIRMAN PORTER indicated the next order of business was                     
  revisiting HB 319.                                                           
                                                                               
  HB 319 - ALASKA PEACE STANDARDS TRAINING FUND                                
                                                                               
  Number 738                                                                   
                                                                               
  REP. GAIL PHILLIPS, Prime Sponsor of HB 319, indicated that                  
  the bill was held over from the last meeting until the issue                 
  of collection of the funds could be resolved.  She asked                     
  Laddie Shaw to comment on that.                                              
                                                                               
  Number 742                                                                   
                                                                               
  LADDIE SHAW, Executive Director, Alaska Peace Standard's                     
  Council, testified that they have resolved the collections                   
  issue and he was available to answer questions.                              
                                                                               
  Number 751                                                                   
                                                                               
  CHAIRMAN PORTER indicated there was some discussion about                    
  the difference between the municipalities that have their                    
  own traffic codes as opposed to others, and asked if Mr.                     
  Shaw saw any problems there.                                                 
                                                                               
  Number 754                                                                   
                                                                               
  MR. SHAW replied, "None whatsoever."  He indicated he talked                 
  to some municipalities that do collect on municipal code,                    
  and with the chiefs of police and finance, and they said                     
  collection would be pretty basic to deal with.  They would                   
  collect it every three months and write a check to the State                 
  of Alaska.                                                                   
                                                                               
  Number 758                                                                   
                                                                               
  REP. JAMES indicated she wanted to reinstate her interest in                 
  the funds for education to be considered for education of                    
  auxiliary police forces that are maybe on a volunteer basis                  
  and will not now be able to because of no available                          
  education.                                                                   
                                                                               
  Number 764                                                                   
                                                                               
  CHAIRMAN PORTER responded that the training that would be                    
  made available with these funds is for in-service kinds of                   
  training, just the kind auxiliary and reserve police forces                  
  need and can attend, and certainly would be in the purview                   
  and benefit from HB 319.                                                     
                                                                               
  Number 790                                                                   
                                                                               
  REP. GREEN moved and asked unanimous consent to pass HB 319                  
  out of committee as amended, with individual recommendations                 
  and with accompanying fiscal note.  Hearing no objection, it                 
  was so moved.                                                                
                                                                               
  CSHB 319(JUD) WAS MOVED FROM COMMITTEE WITH INDIVIDUAL                       
  RECOMMENDATIONS.
