An Act further regulating the Assisted Living Advisory Council

This bill amends the laws governing the Assisted Living Advisory Council in Massachusetts to change how its members are selected and serve. It adds the Speaker of the House and the Senate President as appointing authorities alongside the Secretary of Health and Human Services, while increasing the number of consumer representatives from three to five. The new consumer representatives must include specific individuals from the Massachusetts Assisted Living Association and Leading Age. Additionally, the bill extends the term of service for council members to match the governor's term and clarifies how vacancies should be filled.
