Number 1045                                                                    
                                                                               
CHAIRMAN GREEN announced the final item of business would be HB                
474, "An Act relating to correctional officers."  He called on                 
Laddie Shaw to testify, noting that they are trying to make anyone             
in charge of incarcerating state prisoners meet a standard that all            
other incarcerating officers meet.                                             
                                                                               
REPRESENTATIVE BUNDE said, "Move it."                                          
                                                                               
REPRESENTATIVE ROKEBERG inquired whether there is a fiscal note.               
                                                                               
CHAIRMAN GREEN pointed out that there is a zero fiscal note.                   
                                                                               
REPRESENTATIVE ROKEBERG asked where the money is coming from to do             
this.                                                                          
                                                                               
Number 1066                                                                    
                                                                               
LADDIE SHAW, Executive Director, Alaska Police Standards Council,              
noted that with him was Barbara Murray, Community Jails                        
Coordinator, Division of Administrative Services, Department of                
Corrections.  He told members that if this is approved, the                    
training will come from the existing surcharge, which exists for               
them as a regulatory authority for training for law enforcement and            
corrections.                                                                   
                                                                               
Number 1097                                                                    
                                                                               
CHAIRMAN GREEN asked whether there were further questions or any               
objections to moving the bill.  Hearing no objection, he announced             
that HB 474 was moved from the House Judiciary Standing Committee.
