House committee approves interim study on guardianship issues
Summary
The House Health and Human Services Committee voted to pass House Joint Resolution 26, requesting an interim study of guardianship issues and finalizing proxy votes for members unable to attend.
Vice Chair Buttry moved that the House Health and Human Services Committee give "do pass" recommendation to House Joint Resolution 26, a joint resolution requesting an interim study of guardianship issues and requiring follow-up as described in the resolution. The motion was adopted and the resolution passed in executive action.
The resolution, identified in committee as House Joint Resolution 26 and presented as a request for an interim study, was introduced on behalf of Representative Close. Committee staff recorded proxy votes for several members during the roll call and executive action. Chair Ochart voiced the affirmative and the committee clerk, Miss Moses, recorded attendance and proxies. The committee recessed briefly before convening executive action where the resolution was considered.
The committee did not discuss changes to statutory language in committee; the record shows the item was a request for an interim study rather than an immediate statutory change. The motion to pass carried with recorded proxy votes noted from members unable to attend; the committee declared the resolution passed in executive action.
