Title
State government, Dept. of Senior Services, membership of advisory board further provided, Sec. 38-3-1 am'd.
Summary

HB99 would make three ex officio members of the Department of Senior Services advisory board voting members and allow them to appoint designees to vote in their place.

What This Bill Does

The advisory board currently has 16 members with three ex officio members who do not vote. The bill changes this so the Labor Commissioner, State Health Officer, and the Commissioner of the Department of Human Resources become voting members. It also allows those three members to designate a substitute to vote on their behalf. The overall board composition remains the same, with governor-appointed members and legislative members continuing to participate.

Who It Affects
  • The Department of Senior Services and its 16-member advisory board, which would gain voting rights from the three ex officio members.
  • The ex officio members (Labor Commissioner, State Health Officer, and DHR Commissioner) and any designees they appoint, who would have voting authority on the board.
Key Provisions
  • The three ex officio members—Labor Commissioner, State Health Officer, and DHR Commissioner—become voting members on the advisory board.
  • Those ex officio voting members may appoint a designee to serve and vote in their place on the board.
