Senator Dupree asked whether the reconstituted Magcor board has staggered terms and pressed committee staff for a clear roster. He noted that three of the five seats appear to be held by government officials (including the commission of correction executive director and the state workforce director), leaving two seats appointed from outside government.
"I just want to make sure that when you look at these 5 members that they are ... diverse in what they do in the community," Senator Dupree said, and he asked who represents the faith-based community. The chair said he believed Ron McNeal occupies that seat and that he would double-check and provide the committee the confirmed name.
The committee did not receive a full roster on the record and requested a follow-up to confirm board membership and the distribution of government and private-sector seats.
