HB 1504 -- INSURANCE BOARD MEMBERSHIP SPONSOR: Yates COMMITTEE ACTION: Voted "do pass by consent" by the Committee on Insurance Policy by a vote of 14 to 0. This bill modifies the membership requirements for the board of directors of the Missouri Health Insurance Pool and the Medical Malpractice Joint Underwriting Association. The committee member requirements for the Missouri Basic Property Insurance Inspection and Placement Program are also modified. FISCAL NOTE: No impact on state funds in FY 2007, FY 2008, and FY 2009.
