 SENATOR RIEGER moved and asked unanimous consent that  SCS CSHB
(FIN)  (ADMINISTRATION OF BUDGET RESERVE FUND) be approved for              
 calendaring at the Chair's discretion.  SENATOR LITTLE objected.              
 The roll was taken with the following result:  Senators Jacko,                
 Rieger and Halford voted "Yea" and Senator Little voted "Nay."  The           
 Chairman stated the motion carried.                                           
 Number 030                                                                    
 SENATOR RIEGER moved and asked unanimous consent that  CSSB 33(FIN)           
 (GRANTS FOR LOCAL EMERGENCY PLANNING) be approved for calendaring             
 at the Chair's discretion.  Hearing no objection, it was so                   
 ordered.                                                                      
 Number 042                                                                    
 SENATOR RIEGER moved and asked unanimous consent that  SB 210                 
 (DISPOSAL OF DALTON HWY RIGHT-OF-WAY LAND) be approved for                    
 calendaring at the Chair's discretion.  Hearing no objection, it              
 was so ordered.                                                               
 Number 050                                                                    
 SENATOR RIEGER moved and asked unanimous consent that  SB 212  (STATE    TE   
 PROCUREMENTS AND PUBLICATIONS) be approved for calendaring at the             
 Chair's discretion.  SENATOR LITTLE objected, stating that some of            
 the legislation before the committee has had only one hearing in              
 the Senate Finance Committee where the minority does not have                 
 proportional representation and input.  She said she finds it                 
 totally reprehensible that this practice has continued.  SENATOR              
 RIEGER pointed out that SB 212 had several hearings in the Senate             
 Labor and Commerce Committee.                                                 
                                                                               
 CHAIRMAN HALFORD stated there would be a roll call vote on the                
 calendaring motion for SB 212.  Senators Jacko, Rieger and Halford            
 voted "Yea" and Senator Little voted "Nay."  The Chairman stated              
 the motion carried.                                                           
 CHAIRMAN HALFORD informed the committee that  CSHB 69(FIN)  (SEX              
 OFFENDER REGISTRATION) and a proposed SCS CSHB 69(RLS) would be               
 scheduled for a substantive hearing at its next meeting.                      
 There being no further business to come before the committee, the             
 meeting was adjourned at 2:49 p.m.
