RS 13830
Amend Title 22, Chapter 51, Idaho Code, to compensate members of

Code. The advisory committee member's honorarium will no longer be
considered salary as defined in section 59-1302(31), Idaho Code.
On October 10, 2003, the Seed Indemnity Fund Advisory Committee
voted unanimously to be compensated in accordance with section 59-
509(o), Idaho Code, rather than section 59-509(i), Idaho Code.
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no fiscal impact to the general fund.
