"An Act relating to the Board of Barbers and

practice non-chemical barbering."
9:05:42 AM
Vice-Chair Bishop MOVED to ADOPT the committee substitute
for SS SB 4, Work Draft 30-LS0078\U (Radford, 2/2/18).
Co-Chair MacKinnon OBJECTED for discussion.
9:06:08 AM
JULI LUCKY, STAFF, SENATOR ANNA MACKINNON, explained the
committee substitute. She directed committee attention to
Page 10, where language had been added in the transition
section to give the Department of Commerce, Community, and
Economic Development the authority to implement the changes
made by the bill.
9:06:55 AM
Co-Chair MacKinnon asked whether the sponsor supported the
legislation.
Senator Micciche replied in the affirmative.
9:07:25 AM
SARA CHAMBERS, DEPUTY DIRECTOR, DIVISION OF CORPORATIONS,
BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL LICENSING, COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT, related that the CS met the need of the
division.
9:07:53 AM
Co-Chair MacKinnon WITHDREW her OBJECTION. There being NO
further OBJECTION, it was so ordered.
Ms. Lucky discussed the fiscal note, which was revised but
still had no fiscal impact. She read the analysis:
The current version of the bill allows the
Department's existing regulations to be enforced by
the Board of Barbers and Hairdressers and maintains
the Department's ability to regulate and enforce
regulations pertaining to body piercing, tattooing,
and permanent cosmetic coloring.
The Department discontinued oversight of barbers,
hairdressers, manicurist, and esthetician facilities
in FY2016. Currently the Department's work is limited
to inspection of high-risk body art facilities which is
funded by a reimbursable services agreement with
DCCED. The duties and authorities are unchanged in the
proposed bill, and the result would have no fiscal
impact to the Department.
9:08:58 AM
Vice-Chair Bishop MOVED to REPORT CS SS SB 4(FIN), with
individual recommendations and accompanying fiscal notes.
CSSS SB4(FIN) was REPORTED out of committee with a "do
pass" recommendation and with one new zero fiscal note from
Department of Environmental Conservation, and one new
fiscal note from Department of Commerce, Community and
Economic Development.
