  MS. WILLIAMS mentioned HJR 11, allowing the legislature to                   
  repeal regulations.  She mentioned that it was not in the                    
  report because the task force would not support it.                          
  However, she supported it personally.  She commented that it                 
  may be difficult to get that past the voters.  It may be                     
  worth investigating the Administrative Procedures Act, she                   
  concluded.                                                                   
                                                                               
  CHAIRMAN DAVIS commended the task force on their report.  He                 
  mentioned that the committee has a budget and would be                       
  interested in investigating regulations further.  He also                    
  mentioned the committee's support of HJR 11.                                 
                                                                               
  SENATOR LINCOLN wondered if there are or were other task                     
  forces created to look into regulations.                                     
                                                                               
  MS. WILLIAMS stated that Governor Hickel has no other                        
  regulatory review task force.  Also, to the best of her                      
  knowledge there were no others by previous governors.                        
                                                                               
  SENATOR LINCOLN commented that their findings are most                       
  helpful and interesting and that there should be more task                   
  forces to investigate other areas.  She commented further                    
  that this task force had a narrow focus, and wondered if it                  
  would be possible to create another task force that would be                 
  able to investigate a broad focus.                                           
                                                                               
  MS. WILLIAMS said that the task force would need at least a                  
  year, as well as more money.                                                 
                                                                               
  SENATOR LINCOLN said she would like the committee to                         
  consider recommending to the governor that another task                      
  force be created and given a year or so to go much more in                   
  depth.                                                                       
                                                                               
  CHAIRMAN DAVIS stated that he would like the committee to                    
  spell out exactly what it would be looking for.                              
                                                                               
  MS. WILLIAMS mentioned that all the articles referenced in                   
  the report were attached to the back of report.                              
                                                                               
  ADJOURNMENT                                                                  
                                                                               
  CHAIRMAN DAVIS adjourned the meeting at 2:35 p.m.
