     This resolution establishes a new standing committee for
Health Care.



                          FISCAL IMPACT

     Expenses would include the addition of a committee secretary
and office equipment including a desk, phone, computer, and
space.  There would be cost savings derived from relief of LSO
staff who currently provide support for the Health Care Task
Force.  There is no additional cost incurred by legislators
themselves.
