Committee approves sending H 774—repeal of minimum hunting fines—to the floor
Summary
H 774 would repeal Section 36-1120, Idaho Code, removing specified minimum fines for illegal hunting of certain species because fines are established elsewhere in statute; the committee recommended DO PASS and Rep. Manwaring will sponsor the bill on the floor.
Rep. Manwaring presented H 774 under the Idaho Code Cleanup Act, explaining the bill repeals Section 36-1120, Idaho Code, which provides minimum fines for illegal hunting of mountain lion, buffalo, and caribou. The presenter told the committee that fines for hunting violations are established in other sections of Idaho Code. Rep. Raybould moved to send the bill to the floor with a DO PASS recommendation, and the motion carried by voice vote.
No vote tally was recorded in the minutes; Rep. Manwaring will sponsor H 774 on the House floor following the committee recommendation.
