Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Sirs:

 

     Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the Senate to the amendments proposed by the House of Representatives in S.B. No. 2536, H.D. 2, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CLEAN AND SOBER HOMES AND HALFWAY HOUSES,"

 

having met, and after full and free discussion, has agreed to recommend and does recommend to the respective Houses the final passage of this bill in an amended form.

 

     The purpose of this measure is to:

 

     (1)  Establish a clean and sober home and halfway house task force; and

 

     (2)  Appropriate funds to meet costs and expenditures for the clean and sober home and halfway house task force and related reports and activities required by the Legislature.

 

     Your Committee on Conference finds that the needs and concerns of the communities in which clean and sober homes and halfway homes are established need to be tempered with the needs of individuals requiring the support of such facilities.

 

     Your Committee on Conference has amended this measure by:

 

     (1)  Adding the establishment of a pilot clean and sober home and halfway house in a county with a population over 900,000 to the task force's responsibilities;

 

     (2)  Deleting the appropriation; and

 

     (3)  Changing the effective date to upon approval.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the managers of your Committee on Conference that is attached to this report, your Committee on Conference is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2536, H.D. 2, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2536, H.D. 2, C.D. 1.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:
