HB 267 - DOMESTIC VIOL. & SEXUAL ASSAULT DISCLOSURE                            
                                                                               
Number 1007                                                                    
                                                                               
CHAIRMAN GREEN announced the next item of business would be HB 267,            
"An Act relating to domestic violence and sexual assault; and                  
providing for an effective date."  The committee had moved CSHB                
267(JUD) out of committee on February 9, 1998.                                 
                                                                               
CHAIRMAN GREEN told members the Department of Law had advised them             
that whereas "law enforcement official" is used in the body of the             
bill, the title change adopted at the previous hearing used the                
phrase "public safety officers."  Chairman Green therefore                     
recommended that the title be changed on lines 2 and 3 to read,                
"counselors to reveal to law enforcement officials."  He mentioned             
the change made at the previous hearing which resulted in the                  
wording, "person is missing."  He then acknowledged that Version H,            
the new proposed committee substitute, contains those changes.                 
                                                                               
Number 1087                                                                    
                                                                               
REPRESENTATIVE ROKEBERG made a motion to rescind the committee's               
previous action [of February 9, 1998, moving the bill, as amended,             
from committee].  There being no objection, it was so ordered.                 
                                                                               
Number 1098                                                                    
                                                                               
REPRESENTATIVE ROKEBERG made a motion to move version 0-LS0098\H               
out of committee.  There being no objection, CSHB 267(JUD) moved               
from the House Judiciary Standing Committee.
