REPRESENTATIVE ROKEBERG explained that HB 68 is a housekeeping                                                                  
measure that extends the termination date of the Board of Pharmacy                                                              
to 2005 and follows the recommendations of the Legislative Budget                                                               
and Audit Committee.                                                                                                            
                                                                                                                                
CHAIRMAN MACKIE noted that the standing policy is to extend Boards                                                              
for four years.  He asked why they suggested six years.                                                                         
                                                                                                                                
REPRESENTATIVE ROKEBERG said there is the geographic differential                                                               
on the appointments to the Board members, but they try to get                                                                   
different judicial districts.                                                                                                   
                                                                                                                                
SENATOR KELLY said he didn't have a problem with 2005.                                                                          
                                                                                                                                
SENATOR LEMAN said he didn't have a problem with this particular                                                                
Board, but he wanted to be consistent.                                                                                          
                                                                                                                                
SENATOR LEMAN moved to change the effective date from 2005 to 2003.                                                             
There were no objections and it was so ordered.                                                                                 
                                                                                                                                
REPRESENTATIVE ROKEBERG said he had no objections to the change,                                                                
but it requires a title change, also.

SENATOR LEMAN moved to pass HB 68.  There were no objections and it                                                             
was so ordered.
