Suspending Rules 24(c), 35, 41(b), and 42(e), Uniform Rules of the Alaska State Legislature, concerning House Bill No. 36, relating to the placement of foster children in psychiatric hospitals; relating to the care of children in state custody placed in residential facilities outside the state; and amending Rule 12.1(b), Alaska Child in Need of Aid Rules of Procedure.
SCR 10 is a procedural resolution that suspends specific Alaska legislative rules (24(c), 35, 41(b), and 42(e)) to allow faster consideration of House Bill 36. It does not change policies itself but removes normal procedural steps required for amending a bill's title during debate. House Bill 36, which SCR 10 expedites, would address foster child placement in psychiatric hospitals and care standards for children in state custody placed in out-of-state residential facilities. This resolution affects the legislative process for HB 36, not the final policy content.
