RULING BY THE PRESIDENT PRO TEMPORE
President Pro Tempore Wojahn: "In ruling upon the point of order raised by Senator Johnson, the President finds that Substitute Senate Bill No. 5537 is a measure which changes the requirements for admission to teacher preparation programs, including elimination of the requirement that applicants achieve a particular score on a general achievement test. The bill also repeals sections of law dealing with State Board of Education directives to encourage or require certain elements in teacher preparation programs, including child abuse issues and the participation of higher education faculty in K-12 instruction.
"The amendment proposed by Senator Pelz would also address teacher preparation program requirements by preventing the State Board of Education from adopting a requirement which specifies a literature course in any particular nationality.
"The President, therefore, finds that the proposed amendment does not change the scope and object of the bill and the point of order is not well taken."
The amendment by Senator Pelz on page 4, after line 13, to Substitute Senate Bill No. 5537 was ruled in order.

The health care authority and the department of social and health services shall make every effort to simplify and expedite the application and enrollment process."
Debate ensued.
POINT OF INQUIRY
Senator Franklin: "Senator Moyer, this is a very good amendment, but I have a couple of concerns. It's the unfunded mandate--do you perceive or see that this would cause any extra costs to those facilities then who will be enrolling and providing the application and sending it on to Olympia? That is one question, because there is no money that goes with this and there is time involvement. Do you see this as an unfunded mandate, because we are trying to get away from that?"
Senator Moyer: "Number one, there should be no cost and number two, it is an opportunity to do it, but it is not a mandate."
POINT OF INQUIRY
Senator Deccio: "Senator Moyer, I have a question on both this amendment and the next one. There are some details that are going to have to be worked out in connection with both of these amendments. Who is responsible for the premiums and what about the renewals and so on? Who will make these rules--the Health Care Authority?"
Senator Moyer: "The Health Care Authority."
Senator Deccio: "There are some details that might be a real problem and they would have to be worked out to the satisfaction of both the entities that do these at no commission and those who do them with a commission."
Senator Moyer: "We called the Health Care Authority and they are willing to do this."

Senator Ann Anderson: "Senator Fraser, I am trying to figure out the mechanism in this bill and I am on Section 2. It references that the revenue derived from timber sales shall be deposited in the--and it deletes the 'trust land' and inserts 'parks renewal and stewardship account.' Is that the historical school/university county trust land or is this a parks trust land account?"
Senator Fraser: "This is the account that has been used for the purchase of DNR lands that go to state parks where we appropriate money--it is the two-step process--we appropriate money to purchase the lands--then purchase replacement lands and then the state parks system has a new or expanded--"
Senator Ann Anderson: "So, for further clarification, the trading of land has been done, but the money has been going into the trust fund account and now it will go into a parks account?"
Senator Fraser: "There is only one parcel left of the listed parcels that the Legislature authorized to be purchased through this program and so there is a lot of language deleted in here for those parcels that have already been purchased. The one left will go through the park lands trust revolving fund, which is an nonappropriated account which is used for those purchases, generally and historically by the Department of Natural Resources."
