Loading...
Summary
Senator Malcolm Augustine presented Senate Bill 43, which is in the same posture as House Bill 32; the committee held no questions and concluded the hearing without a committee vote.
The Health and Government Operations Committee on an unspecified date heard Senate Bill 43, a measure to establish a Forensic Review Board within the Maryland Department of Health. Senator Malcolm Augustine presented the bill and asked the committee for a favorable report.
The measure is in the same posture as House Bill 32, which the committee previously heard and reported favorably. Chair Jocelyn Pena Milne noted the identical posture and—after asking whether there were questions—said, "Seeing none, this concludes the bill hearing on Senate bill 43." No committee vote or formal action was recorded in the hearing transcript.
Senator Augustine summarized the bill’s posture to the committee but did not provide additional detail in the hearing record. Because the transcript does not record a committee vote or further deliberation, no legislative action (passage or referral) is documented in this hearing.
The committee’s hearing record shows the matter remains at the hearing stage with a sponsor’s request for a favorable report; next procedural steps and any amendments or votes were not recorded in the provided transcript.
