Sir:
Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred H.B. No. 2418 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO FUNDS USED FOR THE SETTLEMENT OF CLAIMS,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to:
(1) Authorize the Department of Education to expend previously appropriated funds to satisfy the settlement of class counsel attorney's fees related to a class action lawsuit against the State; and
(2) Require certain unencumbered and unexpended moneys of the Department of Education to lapse to the credit of the general fund.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Removing language requiring a certain amount of the unencumbered carryover balance of moneys remaining to the credit of EDN150 - special education and student support services to lapse to the credit of the general fund; and
(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity, consistency, and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2418, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 2418, H.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Finance,
