relative to terms of appointed members on the higher education commission.
HB 443 clarifies the term length for appointed members of New Hampshire's Higher Education Commission. It changes the law to state that appointed members serve fixed 5-year terms, removing the previous requirement that terms continue "until a successor is appointed and qualified." Vacancies are still filled for the remaining term, as specified in the current law. This bill directly affects the appointed members of the commission and takes effect 60 days after passage.
