HB 1678 -- Missouri State Unemployment Council

Sponsor:  St. Onge

This bill creates the Missouri State Unemployment Council, which
will annually report to the Governor and the General Assembly
recommendations on pertinent legislation, the status and
projected maintenance requirements for solvency of unemployment
insurance, and the adequacy of unemployment compensation.  The
Division of Employment Security will provide the council with
access to the division's records, services required, employee
testimony, and recommendations on relevant legislation and rules.
The council may, except if prohibited by concurrent resolution by
the General Assembly, commission an outside study of the
solvency, adequacy, and staffing and operational efficiency of
the Missouri unemployment system.  The first study is authorized
to begin in Fiscal Year 2005 and a successor study every five
years thereafter.  The commission's composition, terms,
appointment requirements, and voting and nonvoting designations
are specified.
