Minutes for SB114 - Committee on Judiciary
Short Title
Clarifying admissibility of certain tests for drugs or alcohol in proceedings under the revised Kansas code for care of children.
Minutes Content for Wed, Feb 8, 2017
Jason Thompson gave a brief on SB 114 saying that it clarifies admissibility of certain tests for drugs or alcohol in proceedings under the revised Kansas Code for the Care of Children, so that a certificate would be sufficient under oath, rather than bringing in the individual that conducted the test.
Proponent:
Kim Parker (Attachment 6) shared support of the bill saying it is directed toward the Child in Need of Care code. She explained that this bill is an important resource saver because it allows court-ordered drug testing results to be delivered to the court in a written, certified, manner, instead of making the individual that performed the test appear in person.
Seeing no questions, Chairman Wilborn moved on to the next order of business.
Neutral:
Chairman Wilborn referenced the written testimony submitted by Kathy Armstrong (Attachment 7), and asked the Committee to review her statement.
Seeing no further statements or questions, Chairman Wilborn closed the hearing.
