 Number 440                                                                    
                                                                               
  MS. MARIANNE BURKE,  Director, Division of Insurance, said after the         
 last meeting on this issue they received a fax from the Health                
 Insurance Association of America, which represents 65% of the                 
 insurance writers in the country.  They offered some minor                    
 wordsmithing and technical amendments which she absolutely agrees             
 with.  MS. KREITZER noted that all of those changes had been                  
 incorporated into the CS.                                                     
                                                                               
 SENATOR MACKIE moved to pass CSSB 104(L&C) from committee with
