       "An Act relating  to allowable absences from  the state                 
       for  purposes   of  eligibility   for  permanent   fund                 
       dividends; and providing for an effective date."                        
                                                                               
  Representative Parnell  MOVED  to  RESCIND  the  Committee's                 
  action in reporting HB  364 out of committee.   He expressed                 
  concern  with  the  expansion  of  allowable  absences   for                 
  qualification  to  the  Permanent  Fund  Dividend   Program.                 
  Representative Foster OBJECTED.                                              
                                                                               
  Representative  Foster  pointed  out  that  the  legislation                 
  received lengthy discussion in the House  Finance Committee.                 
  He suggested that additional questions could be addressed on

  the  House floor.    Representative  Navarre  observed  that                 
  further  deliberations by the  House Finance Committee would                 
  benefit the bills passage.
