Votes at a glance: key Utah House actions, Jan. 1992 session
Summary
The House adopted multiple consent-calendar bills and resolutions, including HB101 (coordinated services), HB105 (presumption of paternity), HJR19 (memorial for Lionel Peterson), HB116 (engineers liability amendments) and HB175 (coordinating council sunset); most passed unanimously or by comfortable margins.
Lawmakers on the January 1992 House floor advanced a slate of bills and resolutions with minimal debate in each case or with committee-level discussion already completed.
On the consent calendar, Substitute House Bill 101 (coordinated services amendment, sponsor Lloyd W. Franson) passed 56–0 after the sponsor described it as clarifying information-sharing among health, human services and education for at-risk children. House Bill 105 (presumption of paternity, sponsor Erbie Ann Arrington) was presented as aligning the Office of Recovery Services with modern genetic-testing standards; it passed 62–0. House Joint Resolution 19, a memorial for Lionel Louis Peterson presented by Representative Nielsen, passed 61–0.
On the third-reading calendar, House Bill 116 (limitation of liability for engineers and architects, sponsor Donald R. LeBaron) was amended on the floor and passed 56–5. Representative LeBaron described the measure as an earthquake-related Good Samaritan protection to encourage qualified volunteer engineers and architects to assist after disasters without undue liability risk.
Other measures noted for referral, amendment or 'circling' for further committee work included substitute House Bill 89 (insurance for school board members) and House Bill 175 (coordinating council sunset date), which passed without recorded opposition.
These items will be transmitted to the Senate for further consideration or signature as required.
