The annual cost of training and advocacy efforts is estimated at $8,500. Total costs estimated by the DA were $34,999, $4,054, and $44,346 for Fiscal Years 2000, 2001,and 2002, respectively.

DESCRIPTION
This proposal will revise terms for members of the Commission on the Special Health, Psychological and Social Needs of Minority Older Individuals. Current law stated that the members appointed by the Governor shall serve terms which are limited to November 1, 1998. This proposal eliminates the termination date of November 1998 for those members appointed by the Governor and establishes three year terms as an alternative.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
