Nelson Self 18 Peachtree Avenue, N.E. A2 Atlanta, Georgia 30305 The following communication was received and read: Office of the Governor Atlanta, Georgia 30334 April 14, 1980 Honorable Thomas B. Murphy Speaker, House of Representatives State Capitol Atlanta, Georgia 30334 MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1981 41 Dear Speaker Murphy: I have vetoed House Bills 206, 463, 895, 1099, 1121, 1153, 1210, 1301, 1500 and 1578 which were passed by the General Assembly of Georgia at the 1980 Regular Session. Article V, Section II, Paragraph VI of the Constitution requires that I transmit such bills to you, together with a list of reasons for such vetoes. The bills and corresponding reasons for their veto are enclosed. Sincerely, /s/George Busbee GBxtl Enclosures cc: Honorable Zell Miller, Lieutenant Governor of Georgia Honorable Glenn W. Ellard, Clerk, House of Representatives Honorable Hamilton McWhorter, Jr., Secretary of Senate Honorable Frank H. Edwards, Legislative Counsel Honorable Arthur K. Bolton, Attorney General Honorable David B. Poythress, Secretary of State Veto No. 12 - H. B. 206 by Representative Pinkston of the 100th House Bill 206 changes the venue for suits brought against corporations. During the legislative process an amendment inadvertently has permitted the possibility of a corporation being sued in contract in any county in which the corporation has an office even though that county has not the slightest nexus with the contract. This is an unwise circumstance; therefore, I have vetoed House Bill 206. Veto No. 13 - H. B. 463 by Representatives Johnson of the 74th, Buck of the 95th, Wilson of the 19th and others House Bill 463 amends the Act which provides for a health insurance program for public school employees to add to those eligible to participate in the program classroom aides, paraprofessionals and non-certified administrative and clerical personnel of all public school systems. Senate Bill 145 is an identical version of House Bill 463. Senate Bill 145 has been approved by me. Therefore, I have vetoed House Bill 463 to avoid an unnecessary duplication. Veto No. 14 - H. B, 895 by Representatives Harris of the 8th, Battle of the 124th and Logan of the 62nd House Bill 895 is designed to more clearly establish a public policy statement concerning the authority and responsibility of the State Board of Education to develop standards for programs in teacher certification. The original thrust of the bill espoused an acceptable philosophical approach to the solution of the problem presently being experienced and evoked by a proposed course of action by the State Board of Education in this regard. However, as the bill was subsequently amended and passed, it is my belief that more confusion concerning the issue would result if the bill were allowed to become law. Additionally, school systems would not be permitted to employ as teachers graduates of out-of-state colleges or universities unless such institutions are accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education. Georgia presently recruits many talented teachers from out-of-state institutions who are not so accredited. The problems which subsequently arose by the re-writing of the original version of House Bill 895 were unintended. Prior to taking this veto action, I have counseled with those most closely affected and responsible for the programs and the consequences connected with the proposed solution embraced within House Bill 895 as introduced. I am persuaded that the difficulties which provoked the introduction of this bill are capable of resolve without the necessity of legislative intervention. If not, I will look with favor upon a proposal which does not contain the problems present in this bill. 42 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE, Veto No. 15 - H. B. 1099 by Representatives Cason of the 96th, Buck of the 95th, Thompson of the 93rd and others House Bill 1099 would establish criteria for programs of evaluation prior to implementation of certain projects to be undertaken by the Department of Medical Assistance which govern the reimbursement of licensed hospitals for the cost of providing medical assistance. This bill would severely impair the effectiveness of the State to design, develop and implement cost containment programs which are intended to help bring under control the costs of health services. The concerns of the hospital industry which provoked the introduction and passage of this legislation have been recognized and appropriate administrative actions have been implemented which will afford to the industry adequate opportunity to become informed of any proposed new policy or program, to submit their reaction and to adequately evaluate the impact upon the hospital's fiscal policy. With these safeguards, the constraints which would otherwise be imposed upon effective cost containment projects should not be permitted, and I have accordingly vetoed House Bill 1099. Veto No. 16 - H. B. 1121 by Representatives Snow of the 1st, Murphy of the 18th and Thompson of the 93rd House Bill 1121 was one of a package of bills sponsored by the Code Revision Commission preparatory to the adoption in 1981 of a new Code. Through inadvertence a perfecting amendment to the bill was omitted. Therefore, the author of House Bill 1121 has requested that I veto the bill because of technical problems which would have otherwise resulted if the measure were allowed to become law. I have acceded to the author's request. Veto No. 17 - H. B. 1153 by Representatives Lambert of the 112th, Hatcher of the 131st, Nichols of the 27th and others As a result of other legislative measures which have been adopted and approved at the 1980 session of the General Assembly, the responsibility for training fire fighting personnel previously exercised by the Georgia Fire Academy will be transferred to the Board of Public Safety. Eventually when constructed and completed, fire fighting personnel will receive their training at the proposed comprehensive public safety training facility to be located in Monroe County. House Bill 1153 was an administration bill to add as an additional member of the Board of Public Safety a fire fighter. The addition of a fire fighter to the Board would more than adequately have provided the necessary input of fire fighters' interests into the Board's responsibility concerning their training. Despite repeated agreements by these interests with me that one additional member was sufficient, House Bill 1153 was amended and passed to add two members to the Board of Public Safety to come from the membership of the Georgia State Firemen's Association. For the foregoing reasons, there will be no member of the Firemen's Association on the Board of Public Safety. Veto No. 18 - H. B. 1210 by Representatives Buck of the 95th, Harris of the 8th and Daugherty of the 33rd House Bill 1210 provides an increase of 15.5 percent in retirement benefits available to members of the Superior Court Clerks' Retirement Fund. No corresponding increase in member contributions to the retirement fund or other appropriate increase in measures which fund the payment of retirement benefits were accomplished. The maximum required employee contribution to the fund of $18.00 has not been changed in 17 years. Previously, I have given my approval to House Bill 104 which enhances the joint-survivorship benefits to recipients of benefits of the fund. Based upon sound actuarial projections, I am advised that if House Bill 1210 were also approved, the situation could arise that within one year the retirement fund could be experiencing unfunded liabilities. For these reasons I have not permitted House Bill 1210 to become law. I am informed that at the next session of the General Assembly, an actuarially sound program to increase retirement benefits for members of the Superior Court Clerks' Retirement Find will be introduced. Veto No. 19 - H. B. 1301 by Representatives Burruss of the 21st, Carrell of the 75th and Marcus of the 26th MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1981 43 House Bill 1301 is a comprehensive bill intended to provide through expanded training and new procedures an improved property tax administration. Many of the features of the bill are laudable and should result in better property tax administration; others, however, have the potential to be counterproductive to good tax administration and merit more intense scrutiny and evaluation before being allowed to become law. The more troublesome and disturbing features of the bill relate to a fundamental change and departure in the methods for the evaluation of public utility property. Presently the value of public utility property is determined by the State Revenue Commissioner and the State Board of Equalization, if the taxpayer is dissatisfied. House Bill 1301 allows for the first time local boards of tax assessors a voice in determining the value of the utility's property. This concept in and of itself is not the problem, but rather the manner in which local boards are given this authority and the implications which necessarily flow from the course embarked upon by the bill. Many questions are raised by the various provisions of the bill for which no answers are provided. Particularly troublesome is the unresolved question of what would be the proper venue for an appeal of the decision of the Board of Equalization if a local board of tax assessors has appealed the Revenue Commissioner's determination. The preoccupation which the potential for the large number of appeals which are made possible by this fundamental change in utility taxation could inhibit and indeed paralyze the Revenue Department's ability to administer the complex annual evaluation and assessment of public utility property in future years. If this were to occur, chaos and disaster could surface in many counties and municipalities if these local governments should be denied in a timely manner the vital and essential source of revenue which enables these units of governments to provide basic and essential governmental services. Before a change in direction of the magnitude contemplated within this legislation is embarked upon, the full impact and all possible implications should be thoroughly analyzed and evaluated and answers found for the questions raised for which there are presently no answers. Because the changes wrought by the bill insofar as public utility taxation are concerned would not become effective until the next calendar tax year, I deem it to be the more prudent and responsible position to afford to the Tax Reform Commission the time to reassess all of the implications in its recommended course of action contained within House Bill 1301 rather than dealing with potential problems as they might arise in the future and perhaps suffering the consequences which might be devastating. Accordingly, I have reluctantly vetoed House Bill 1301. Veto No. 6 - H. B. 1500 by Representatives Childs of the 51st, Collins of the 144th and Williamson of the 45th House Bill 1500 would require that a tax at the rate of one percent of the gross direct premiums received from life insurance policies written on persons who reside in the unincorporated areas of this State be levied and collected by each county governing authority. Each life insurance company would have been permitted to deduct from its obligation to pay a state premium tax a figure corresponding the tax directed to be levied by this bill. The State Treasury would thus lose an estimated 10 million dollars annually. The granting of a tax authority to counties at the expense of State revenues at this critical economic juncture is not prudent and is unwise, and I have therefore vetoed House Bill 1500. Veto No. 20 - H. B. 1578 by Representatives Marcus of the 26th, Collins of the 144th and Harris of the 8th House Bill 1578 requires that the Department of Medical Assistance formulate a plan which will allow Georgia residents who are 65 years or older regardless of their financial status to purchase prescription drugs for their use from pharmacists without paying the applicable State and local sales and use tax imposed upon the transaction. After properly maintaining the necessary tax records and accomplishing the requisite accounting procedures, the pharmacist may deduct from his State sales tax liability a figure which corresponds to the tax not paid on the purchase. The overall objective sought to be accomplished by the bill is to relieve the elderly of the burden, if any, of the sales and use tax which is otherwise applicable. Whether it can be argued successfully that the payment of a sales tax on prescription drugs is a burden to the well-to-do or extremely 44 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE, wealthy elderly resident is doubtful. Unquestionably, the measure would provide some relief to low income elderly residents who are required to expend an inordinate amount of their disposable income on medicine. I am in complete sympathy with the desire to relieve this class of citizens of some of their tax burdens. I have previously approved of legislation which will allow those who qualify to defer a portion of their ad valorem property tax payments. Unfortunately, our Constitution prohibits the enactment of a scheme contemplated by House Bill 1578. Even though this measure, because of its unconstitutionality cannot be brought to fruition, the very same relief from any burden imposed upon the elderly by the sales tax on prescriptions can be afforded very simply and effectively without the necessity of imposing upon the pharmacist additional recordkeeping and accounting burdens by simply exempting such transactions from the sales and use tax.

The Resolution calling for the Joint Session was read. Accompanied by the Committee of Escort and other distinguished guests, His Excellency Governor George D. Busbee appeared upon the floor of the House and delivered the following address: STATE OF THE STATE ADDRESS BY GOVERNOR GEORGE BUSBEE TUESDAY AT NOON, JANUARY 13, 1981 HOUSE CHAMBER STATE CAPITOL ATLANTA, GEORGIA I'd like to depart a bit from the traditional format for a State of the State address by deferring until the budget message a full recitation of our successes of the past year, and our needs and shortcomings in each area of government for the year ahead. Because if we don't make progress in what I am going to talk about today, then anything I outline to you in the budget won't much matter 20 years from now to the ladies and gentlemen who will be occupying your seats and mine. Today, I'd like to discuss what I believe all Georgians hate and are thoroughly sick of. The Georgia people hate what this cruel and seemingly endless inflation is doing to them, and they are sick of government which helps create inflation by waste and inefficiency, and which adds to inflation's ravages through higher taxes, irresponsible policies, and disruptive, contradictory responses to our economic problems. Our people have seen inflation cause prices to double in just ten years. Their takehome pay....in real dollars....has slipped back to what they were making in 1972. Yet, what you could buy in 1972 for about one dollar, now costs the average Georgian two dollars. Adequate housing is far beyond the reach of most young Georgians. Rising fuel costs have crimped an already shrinking pocketbook and have damaged many of our vital industries beyond repair. Food and clothing costs are double what they were for many commodities just five years ago. Finally, Georgians who pay income taxes....state or federal....are and have been victims of a cruel, silent, secret tax increase each year as inflation exposes more and more of their TUESDAY, JANUARY 13, 1981 59 incomes to higher income bracket rates....while exemptions stay at virtually the same level as they were when enacted in 1955. Along with inflation and the countless problems which attend inflation, the second great enemy perceived by the people of Georgia is unresponsive, irresponsible government. And although we in Georgia government may justifiably consider ourselves victims of Big Government in Washington, we'd just be fooling ourselves if we thought the people made any particular distinctions among federal, state and local governments in their desire to be left alone. We can change this undifferentiated hostility to government in two ways: first, obviously enough, by setting a good example....by doing everything in our power to provide a truly effective, efficient and accountable state government. Second, and equally important, we must begin to clarify and define the proper roles and responsibilities of the various levels of government in a way that our people can clearly understand. These two tasks, in my opinion, have become virtually inseparable, because it is increasingly difficult for you and me to perform our duties successfully without first doing something to correct the rampant irresponsibility of the federal government. Let me first explain why it's important to clarify the proper roles of government. Our system of federalism is no longer characterized by different levels of government performing different, specifically defined functions. State and local governments are increasingly absorbed with the implementation of national policies, whether dictated by Congress, the courts, or the bureaucracy. You and I know....and the people of Georgia need to know....that the federal government lost touch years ago with any notion of limitation to purely national concerns, and now routinely intervenes in state and local matters. I am very concerned with our own shrinking power vis-a-vis the federal government, and I am alarmed by the extent to which our limited powers and resources must be expended to implement or adjust to often irresponsible even accidental federal policies. Every day, the federal government imposes enormous obligations on states and localities with no provision for federal assistance, or even any recognition of the fiscal impact that those obligations carry. Another disgusting and grossly inefficient federal trend is the proliferation of categorical grant programs, which now number 473 in just 29 functional areas. Of these 473 programs, the largest 19 consume 80 per cent of the total available funds for all categoricals. The largest 49 consume 90 per cent of available funds. This means that 10 per cent of all available categorical monies must fund 424 small, narrowly defined programs. To me, no other aspect of current federal policy so graphically demonstrates the fragmented, irrational and inefficient course which federal expansion has taken. Categorical grants represent 473 isolated moments of monumental congressional resolve, frozen like fossils in a glacier of bureaucratic inertia; 473 signing ceremonies attended by representatives of thousands of interest groups which forever after regard those programs as "theirs." During periods of fiscal restraint, these categorical grants are expecially immune because of the "iron triangle" which has grown up around them. The iron triangle's three points are first, the committee or subcommittee staffs in the Congress who champion these programs; second, the bureaucrats who administer them; and finally, the professionally organized constituent groups which lobby for the programs' continuation. Whenever one of these inefficient programs is attacked or threatened, these three points close to form an impenetrable iron triangle that is cemented by greed, power and selfishness. A good example of this irresponsibility, and of its effect on state government, can be found in Congress' reaction last fall to the insistent public demand for fiscal responsibility. Typically, in reaction to this public pressure, Congress blamed the President....it blamed the states....it blamed everybody else....and it began a harem-scarem meat-ax slashing of the most politically vulnerable budget items, regardless of national priorities. 60 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE, But let no one be misled by these ballyhooed budget cuts in Congress. Despite all the claims of tough-minded fiscal restraint and all the speeches about "biting the bullet," Congress made most of its cuts not in direct expenditures of the federal government....not in the hiring of bureaucrats or the exercise of those regulatory powers which make life so complicated for us all....but rather in grants-in-aid to state and local governments....in the money we receive to perform responsibilites which, in most cases, were imposed on us by the federal government in the first place. Congressmen may boast about all the "hard decisions" they made on the budget, but in fact most of the hard decisions were passed along to you and me. As a result of these buck-passing congressional actions, many federal dollars we received last year will no longer be forthcoming. In Education, Georgia lost over $17 million in school lunch funds and over three-quarters of a million dollars for centers for the severely emotionally disturbed. In Human Resources, funds for family health and tuberculosis control, for health grants-in-aid to counties, in Community Mental Health and Drug Abuse Centers all these funds and more are gone. In Community Affairs, the State Crime Commission was abolished; substantial funds were slashed from Offender Rehabilitation, Pardon and Paroles, Natural Resources....and I could go on and on. Most importantly, we lost $50,800,000 in Federal Revenue Sharing, which helped fund teacher retirement. From what we have been able to learn so far, the State of Georgia has lost a total of more than $124,883,000 in federal funds. In short, Congress did three things to us. First, it cut almost all programs in which the states had some degree of flexibility, such as revenue sharing. Second, it passed-thebuck by cutting vulnerable state services, many of which are mandated by federal law, because it knew we had to continue them. Finally, in several cases, it changed the rules of the game in mid-stream. For example, this year we have to pick up an additional $2,465,000 in Medicaid costs because the matching-ratio was changed by Congress. Because of this iron triangle in Washington, special interest aid still flourishes, and I am not aware of a single federal bureaucrat who lost his job due to these cutbacks. Congress has done nothing thus far but talk about ways to alleviate directly the injustices of inflation. So in addressing the problems facing Georgia during the next year, we start off at the losing end of a $124 million shell-game with which the budget cutting-magicians of Washington have tried to fool our people. With this background, I hope you and all Georgians agree that it's time to sort out the proper roles and responsibilities of government, so that people can clearly understand what level of government should be held accountable for the management and expenditure of their tax dollars. I said earlier that our response to inflation and economic dislocation and to the need for fiscal restraint could and should be more responsible than that of Congress....and as long as I am Governor....and you ladies and gentlemen are in this legislature....this is one state government that will be more responsive and responsible. I don't claim that we are perfect. Far from it. But we have made remarkable progress that merits some trust and good faith....that merits some exception when people say they are sick of government. In the last six years, we have completed our interstate system ahead of schedule. We have made tremendous strides in economic growth and development. We've become international in our outlook. Movies are being made in our hometowns. Our children have better and higher paid teachers and the quality of our education has improved markedly. We have a tremendous kindergarten program, rapid transit, expai'di ; ports, better public health care and recreation facilities, and on and on. These are state government provided TUESDAY, JANUARY 13, 1981 61 or supported services and benefits, and they have been made possible by this General Assembly within the framework of a balanced budget. Contrast our record with what Congress has done of late, with its unlimited money printing presses and all the discipline one could find in 535 minnows in a bucket. And now it's the state's turn to respond to the recent actions of the federal government. It's time to demonstrate that government can be respected. But let me tell you first what I hope we are not going to do. We are not going to wail and moan about this lost federal aid. Neither are we going to ignore needed services which were funded by these lost funds. We are not going to pass the buck to some other level of government. And finally, we are not going to let Congress take its feet from the fire and claim that willynilly across-the-board program cuts satisfy its duty to eliminate waste and inefficiency on the Potomac. It is my great hope that we....you and I....are going to do what Congress should have done reevaluate every aspect of our budget and establish careful priorities and in so doing, we are going to pick up the federal slack in those programs which are truly needed by our people. We are going to stand on our own feet, without this federal aid, and instead of crying about inflation and recession and looking to others for help, we are going to do something about it. With your help, we are going to enact the first major revision of our state income tax laws in 25 years by increasing the amounts of personal exemptions, allowances and deductions now in effect. This tax reform....phased in over a three-year period and perhaps extended thereafter....will be in addition to the $75 million program of property tax relief now being funded for the second straight year through the State Board of Education, and which, incidentally, I am also recommending be continued again next year for the third time. The new state tax relief program I am proposing would expand the portion of individual incomes shielded from taxation by increasing in a three-step annual sequence personal exemptions....exemptions for dependents....allowances for the aged and the blind....the standard deduction....and a low income credit. We haven't expanded our exemption, allowances and deductions except for a slight adjustment of the dependent's deduction since 1955, and take home pay for the average Georgian has been steadily eroded. We haven't addressed what inflation is doing to the incomes of married working couples. Now is the time to do it. If enacted, the income tax relief would amount to $57 million in 1981....$77 million in 1982....and $97 million in 19834...or total tax relief of $231 million over a three-year period. Every Georgian who now pays any amount of state income tax will get some relief. Details of this program will be outlined Thursday in my budget message to you. While tax relief will be a major step in our response to the economic problems which beset our people, we must also exercise an unusual degree of care in allocation resources to traditional areas of concern. This allocating process will require a great deal of flexibility with, and wise management of, the limited resources available to us in these troubled and confusing times. Although it often seems that the same programs need attention year after year....that some problems never go away....those of us in this room know that, in most cases, the dimensions of the problems today are drastically different. Public education provides an excellent example of the manner in which the dimensions of problems change within program areas. Although the birth rate and the number of school-aged children have declined, average daily attendance in our public schools has actually increased slightly over the past 20 years. 62 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE, But higher attendance and increased target populations require money. Likewise, college enrollment is stabilizing, but there are internal shifts, including a greater emphasis on graduate studies, which are going to require additional state dollars. While we were progressive in completing our original principal interstate highway routes early with state bond funds which have since been totally refunded, with interest many of our interstate highways are now showing wear and tear from hard usage over the years. This is going to require a new program of resurfacing. In an effort to reduce the consumption of foreign oil, Georgia motorists are using less gasoline. They have been so conservation-minded that motor fuel tax collections, which are based on 7-Va cents per gallon, have been going down for a year-and-a-half. While this is good for our nation, it is insufficient for highway financing. Economic development is great in producing jobs and bringing in new revenues for local governments. The other side of the coin is that it spawns a wide range of local needs such as improved water and sewer facilities. These needs are expensive. The cost of health care is the fastest-growing expenditure of government. In fiscal year 1979 health care was estimated to have cost the state about $435 million. Expenditures will be in the neighborhood of $575 million in fiscal year 1982. Health care is now consuming about 17 per cent or about one-sixth of the state budget. We must begin to address this problem, both at the federal and state levels. There is another problem in connection with health care that particularly concerns me that is, the lack of sufficient doctors in rural areas while at the same time there is an over-supply of specialists concentrated in urban areas. In Georgia, 117 counties have been identified as medically underserved. Also, 81 counties show decreases in the rate of private physicians per 10,000 population from 1974 to 1980. We have encouraged and supported the development of primary health care centers to increase the availability of quality care in areas where there are few or no doctors. And we have rapidly increased the Family Practice Residency Program in an effort to lure more doctors into serving in our rural areas. With your assistance, we will be continuing our efforts toward this problem in the next two years. Our prison system continues to be a major problem. While the prison population rises, we also face a court order to make improvements. During my years in office, we have committed almost $100 million to build new prisons or modernize our old facilities, and another $12 million will be needed to complete our work. But instead of putting our total emphasis on incarceration, we are trying to seek alternatives to incarceration through the opening of more diversion centers and transition centers. As long as our crime rate remains high, we must incarcerate a large number of individuals, but we want to rehabilitate those inclined to rehabilitation and take the burden off of our prisons. It costs $36,000 a bed to build prisons, but only $7,800 per bed to build a diversion center. One of our proudest achievements is in the area of attracting international investments to Georgia. But we have not done as much as we can to encourage export of more Georgia products. This year we plan to launch a major new export promotion program, which hopefully will stimulate a large number of our businesses and industries to explore the tremendous potential of foreign markets. I believe we can accomplish all of these things and more. Together, we've tackled equally difficult tasks in the past. Unfortunately, we also continue to administer with knee-jerk obedience the burdensome, ill-conceived, overlapping, confusing and often wasteful federal programs. We have TUESDAY, JANUARY 13, 1981 63 to fight daily with the bureaucrats on the Potomac, who dream up rules to run our lives as they see fit. I don't mind....you don't mind....the Georgia people don't mind accepting responsibilities as long as we clearly understand them. We do not mind being held accountable for our actions, as long as we can have total control over those actions. But from this day forth, I am absolutely unwilling to sit back and have this legislature....this state government....or our people take the blame and abuse for problems generated, controlled, and exacerbated by the federal government. I am fed up with being on the spinning end of the federal yo-yo, especially when we don't know who in Washington is pulling the strings. Moreover, I'm convinced that state government can not only earn the respect of our people, we can also collectively begin to straighten out the federal government. In August of 1980 at the annual meeting of the National Governors' Association, the governors adopted the reform of the federal system as their top priority. To me, federalism reform does not reflect the old notion of "states' rights" and all the political baggage that term carries. Rather, the nation's governors are calling for a restoration of the balance of powers among levels of government in our federal system and a clarification of accountability in carrying out our separate functions. We in state government are not simply upset at our own loss of power. We are upset that federal intrusion into purely local and state matters, federally mandated responsibilities on state and local governments for purely national matters, and the insatiable federal appetite for new revenue sources, are all making it nearly impossible for us....as governors or legislators....to fulfill our own, independent duty to the people. And it behooves me to warn the people of Georgia that their dream of being free from government domination of their lives will not be realized unless something is first done to untangle the Gordian knot of different levels of government in this country. Yet, it is not my purpose here today to cast all blame on the federal government. I recognize clearly that there is no simple solution to sorting our proper governmental roles and responsibilities. We cannot overnight undo what has evolved over 40 to 50 years. I am very encouraged by the attitude of President-elect Reagan on many of the issues we are concerned about, and this state government intends to work diligently and closely with him in preparing remedies to our problems. This pledge of close cooperation with the President-elect clearly transcends party lines and factional politics because we are concerned with and unanimously committed to maintaining the vitality and viability of states as they were constitutionally conceived. On the other hand, as a start....and as a matter of survival....! believe that governors and legislators must lay aside any differences that we may have in the state houses and join together in a common effort toward restoring balance and understanding in our federal system regardless of the party controlling the White House or either House of Congress. We can assert our new found "independence," certainly not to pull away from the nation, but rather to lead it. Working together, we can make Georgia an example to the country by recovering the federal fumble. In November, at an historic meeting, the executive committee of the National Governors' Association and the steering committee of the National Conference of State Legislatures met to adopt a common agenda for federalism reform. At that meeting, we cast aside the notion that our destiny is in the hands of the federal government. We refused to accept the notion that state officials should become only clerks of the federal establishment. 64 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE, Today I ask you to join with me in carrying out the national agenda we have adopted. I want you to join me in petitioning Congress by resolution to enact legislation which will establish a process for categorical grant consolidation and a reduction of the number and cost of categorical grants. I ask you to join me in support for enactment of fiscal note legislation which would require estimation, in advance, of the costs imposed on state and local governments in carrying out any federal mandates. Moreover, at the meeting between the governors and state legislators, we agreed that it's time for all state officials to talk frankly with our senators and congressmen about the proper roles and responsibilities of the federal, state and local governments. For example, at the height of the invasion of Afghanistan, with inflation running rampant, I don't believe it was a proper federal function of the Congress to be discussing whether or not funds ought to be made available for jellyfish control. Let me stress that no governor in this country....to my knowledge....has a closer rapport and working relationship with his congressional delegation than I do. And I know from talking with you, that our members in Congress have been most responsive to the individual problems we bring to them. What we have not done is talk to our delegation together....on the big picture....and on how we can improve tripartite cooperation and coordination among the three levels of government. Thus, to begin this national sorting out process in the near future, I intend to ask the legislature, the Georgia Municipal Association, and the Association County Commissioners to join me in an invitation to all members of our congressional delegation to return to Georgia for a state convocation on federalism. Similar convocations will be held in every state. Finally, I ask you to join me in a petition to Congress urging the passage of the so-called Ervin Bill as a constitutional amendment. This bill would forever remove the cloud of uncertainty that shrouds the states' ability to call a constitutional convention under Article V of the Constitution. Presently, if a constitutional convention were called by the requisite number of states, total chaos would likely reign. Frankly, unless the roles of government are clarified "through negotiation with Congress, I fear that a convention in inevitable, as a last resort. We must be prepared to face any eventuality. I know there are those who think the actions of one state will make no difference. Let me stress that we are not alone throughout this nation, state governments are just as frustrated as we are. And there are powerful forces equally delighted with the status quo those who thrive, like vultures, on government waste and inefficiency who want our collective efforts to fail. But I believe we will succeed because the people of this state and this country want to understand their government....they want their money's worth....and they want to once again be proud of what they see us do in their behalf. These are challenging days ahead, and together....because the people are on our side....we will meet those challenges successfully and responsibly. Thank you and Happy New Year to you and to all Georgians. Senator Allgood of the 22nd moved that the Joint Session of the General Assembly be now dissolved and the motion prevailed.

Sincerely yours, /s/Frank H. Edwards Legislative Counsel FHE:jp Enclosure cc: Honorable Peyton S. Hawes, Jr. Honorable Young H. Longino Honorable Zell Miller Honorable Thomas B. Murphy Mrs. Shirley Spence Honorable Glenn W. Ellard Honorable Hamilton McWhorter, Jr. Honorable Tom Moreland Honorable Emory C. Parrish Honorable David B. Poythress Mr. Cicero Lucas Honorable Charles E. Tidwell MEMORANDUM January, 1980 TO: Members of the General Assembly FROM: Frank H. Edwards, Legislative Counsel Re: Election of Members of the State Transportation Board This memorandum is for the purpose of furnishing you information relative to the procedure for electing members of the State Transportation Board. Code Section 95A-306 provides the composition of the board, the procedure for the election of members of the board, and other matters relative to the board. This Code section was enacted pursuant to an amendment to the Constitution which is now contained in Article IV, Section VIII, Paragraph I of the Constitution of 1976. The board is composed of ten members, one from each congressional district, with terms of five years. The terms are staggered so that two members of the board are elected each year. The members are elected by the members of the Senate and the House of Representatives from the senatorial and representative districts embraced or partly embraced within the particular congressional district. Those legislators meet in caucus during the first ten days of the regular session for the purpose of electing a member of the board. The Speaker of the House and the President of the Senate, in a notice to the legislators, set the date, time, and place of the caucus which, in the past, usually has been held on Tuesday of the second week of the session. Generally, the procedure for holding the caucus is as follows: (1) At the appointed hour the caucus is called to order by the President or the Speaker or on occasion, by the Legislative Counsel, with a statement as to the purpose of the caucus. The person who opens the caucus presides only until a chairman is elected. (2) The roll is called, usually by the Legislative Counsel. (3) The chair then entertains nominations for chairman of the caucus. It might be wise to point out here that some congressional districts have district legislative associations, and it is perfectly all right for the chairman of that association to preside at the WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 14, 1981 79 meeting of that particular caucus. However, there should be a formal nomination and election at the caucus because this is a caucus provided for by law to carry out a particular purpose and the district legislative association is an unofficial organization. Consequently, there should always be an election of a chairman of that caucus by the caucus itself. This is accomplished by nominations and seconds from the floor. After the chairman is elected, the opening presider steps down and the elected chairman presides for the remainder of the meeting. (4) The chairman then entertains nominations for secretary of the caucus. This is accomplished by nominations and seconds from the floor in the same manner that the chairman was elected. It is not necessary that the secretary take any minutes unless the secretary so desires. The Legislative Counsel's office keeps records of the caucus and prepares all the pertinent material. It is necessary, however, that a secretary be elected in order that the secretary sign, along with the chairman, letters to the President and the Speaker stating who has been elected as a member of the Transportation Board from that particular district. (5) The chairman will then usually see if there are any questions concerning the procedure involved in the election and, if so, the chairman or the Legislative Counsel will try to answer those questions. (6) The chairman then entertains nominations for the member of the State Transportation Board for the particular district involved. There are then nominations and seconds from the floor and a vote is held at that time. (7) Usually the person who is elected to the Transportation Board is near the room or chamber where the election is held and is invited to make a few brief remarks to the caucus. (8) The chairman then states that a motion to adjourn will be entertained and the caucus is adjourned. It seems advisable to call to the attention of members of the General Assembly a few points involved in the election of a member of the Transportation Board. (1) Each member of the caucus has one vote. (2) It takes a majority of the total membership of all members of the caucus to elect a member of the board, not merely a majority of those present. For example, if the caucus has a total membership of 30, it takes the affirmative vote of 16 members to elect a member of the board. (3) A member of the caucus must be present in order to vote. There is no proxy voting. (4) The caucus can determine whether voting for a member of the board will be by show of hands or by secret ballot. (5) If several candidates are running, the caucus can determine in what manner a member is finally elected. For example, if five members are running, the caucus could decide that in the event no candidate received a majority of the votes of the total membership on the first vote, the two candidates receiving the most votes would be in a run-off election. On the other hand, the caucus could decide that in the event no candidate received a majority of the votes on the first ballot, the candidate receiving the lowest number of votes would be dropped each time until a candidate received a majority of the votes. (6) A pertinent provision of the law relative to the Transportation Board reads as follows: "In the event any person who is an officer, agent, official, or employee of the State, or of any county, municipality or other political subdivision thereof, or who is a member of the General Assembly, is appointed or elected as a member of the board, such person must resign as such officer, agent, official, employee or member prior to taking office as a member of the board." There are possibly other points which might arise, but hopefully this memorandum covers the main ones. If you have further questions, we shall be glad to attempt to answer them for you.

Busbee appeared upon the floor of the House and delivered the following address: BUDGET ADDRESS OF GOVERNOR GEORGE BUSBEE THURSDAY AT NOON, JANUARY 15, 1981 HOUSE CHAMBER STATE CAPITOL ATLANTA, GEORGIA Ten days ago, I appeared before the House and Senate Appropriations Committees and outlined amended state budget recommendations for fiscal year 1981 now just past the midway point. Today it is my pleasure to discuss budget proposals for fiscal year 1982, beginning July 1. Before discussing the specific details of the 1982 budget recommendations, I think it would be worthwhile to put both budgets into perspective as they relate to each other. My recommendations for the remainder of this fiscal year are based on financing a backlog of construction projects in which the General Assembly has already demonstrated an interest and in meeting the essential needs of state government that were not anticipated a year ago. For fiscal year 1982, my proposals focus on tax relief....cost of living raises....providing funds to help state agencies cope with inflation and some improvements in existing programs. There are no major new programs in my recommendations, and in 1982 there is very little capital outlay. Since I outlined the amended budget, the pros and cons of bond financing for urgently needed construction projects have been a hot topic of discussion. The discussion at this point needs a little historical perspective. In looking at the amended budget recommendations for 1981, we first should examine closely what you and I together have been able to accomplish. 92 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE, If there has ever been an area of state government in which the lid has been screwed down and sealed, it has been in the area of holding the line on the number of state employees and keeping bonded indebtedness under control. When I took office, the bonded indebtedness stood at a level of 7.98 or in round figures, 8 per cent. If all of the projects that I have recommended for this year were approved, our debt service would stand at only 4.9 per cent of the prior year's treasury receipts, and this would decrease to 4.5 per cent in 1982. Not only have we almost eliminated the issuance of bonds in the last few years, but we have cut down severely on the number of capital projects, many of which are long overdue and desperately needed. Let's take a look at the capital outlay items we are considering for bond financing at this time. With the exception of the recommendations that I am making to improve our port facilities the principal and interest for which will be repaid by earnings from the ports and not with tax dollars we are recommending the go-ahead for projects which you have already approved in legislation or through planning and design funding in earlier budgets. I am requesting $80 million to double the size of the World Congress Center in Atlanta, and you have already approved this project by authorizing $10 million in the existing budget. The existing budget also contains preliminary funding for the $10.8 million Gwinnett Area Vocational-Technical School. The General Assembly has already signified its interest in proceeding with a modern, well-equipped Public Safety Training Center, for which I am recommending $23 million in capital outlay funds. With your approval, the planning and design work has already been accomplished for a $12.4 million GBI complex and new state crime laboratory. The only other capital outlay items we are recommending with bonds are for $80 million for public schools and $40 million for University System construction. A needs survey in public schools which you authorized indicates that we could spend over a billion dollars on public school construction and still not meet all the needs. When you look at this survey, $80 million is a mere pittance. I ask that you examine the public school and University System building needs in your own districts and determine for yourselves where you would cut. Let me reiterate that planning and design has been completed on these non-school projects under prior authorization of the General Assembly and inflation in the construction industry continues to outpace the general rate of inflation in the economy. I ask that you consider what the cost of these projects would be if we waited until cash became available to proceed. I ask you to use sound business judgment in deciding whether these agencies should be denied these improvements and the space these projects would provide while we attempt to accumulate the cash in the face of inflation and competing needs for funding. Not only have we had a moratorium on bonds in recent years and paid cash for construction projects when cash was available, but we went a dramatic step further than the normal payment on our bonded indebtedness. We took the advanced interstate construction payback money we received from the Federal Highway Trust Fund and actually retired old school bonds. This is why we can proceed with the projects I have just outlined and still be committed for bonds to only 4.5 per cent of prior year's revenues instead of the 8 per cent which existed when I took office. Finally, I ask that you bear in mind our triple A rating on the bond market which invariably brings us the most favorable interest rate of any governmental entity in the country....and the fact that leading economists in the state have publicly declared that financing these needs through bonds is wise and sound in this economy. THURSDAY, JANUARY 15, 1981 93 For fiscal year 1982, I am proposing a budget totaling $3,419,011,890.45 an increase of $379,590,933.45 over the current 1981 budget. My recommendations do not include the proposed income tax relief program as a budget item. I have, however, adjusted my revenue estimate to take into consideration the loss of $74 million that would be required to provide income tax relief from this past January 1 until June 30, 1982. So everyone can easily understand what is involved, I have projected revenue collections both under the present tax laws and under revised tax laws. If we make no change in individual income tax laws, revenue collections in 1982 would total $3,423,000,000 an increase of 12.2 per cent over the revised estimate for 1981. If the General Assembly approved the income tax relief program, the state will collect $3,352,500,000 an increase of 9.9 per cent over the revised 1981 estimate. I want to caution, however, that you must consider both the supplemental budget and the F.Y. 1982 budget together. To be able to provide tax relief and pay raises, it is imperative that the General Assembly carry forward into 1982 the surplus of $66.5 million that my budget recommendations envision at the end of the current fiscal year. If this money is spent this year, tax relief and pay raises would be jeopardized. It has been 25 years since we made any substantive changes in our individual income tax laws. Over that period, inflation has driven up prices so swiftly that each dollar of 1955 is now worth only 32 cents. Under the 1955 law, an amount of income thought necessary for a minimal level of living was shielded from taxation by a set of personal exemptions....dependents' allowances....allowances for the aged and blind....and a standard deduction. The proposal I have introduced seeks to restore exemptions and allowances so that something approaching the 1955 portion of individual income Would be shielded from state income taxation. These income exclusions would be raised by between 33-Vs and 50 per cent for all Georgians who currently pay income taxes. This three step program to grant $231 million in income tax relief is not an idea which I alone generated. I have worked very closely with the Tax Reform Commission, and have shared my concern about the effects of inflation on our income taxpayers. I have met informally with leaders of the Tax Reform Commission, who agreed with the magnitude of the income tax relief I am recommending. They further agreed that we should place some time limitation of approximately three years on this relief, so the General Assembly might look at the economy perodically while at the same time avoiding the necessity of passing annual income tax laws. There has been some difference of opinion on how much tax relief should be afforded by exemptions....how much recognition should be given to large families....how much should be given for married couples....and how much consideration should be given for jumps in brackets resulting from inflation. These are details to be worked out, but as far as the magnitude and the need for periodic review are concerned, I think we can agree on these principles. There is no doubt that Georgia taxpayers are anticipating some relief from inflation in our income tax laws to put the reins on this silent tax increase they are experiencing. The cost-of-living pay raises I am proposing will cost $144,978,201, which is 38 per cent of the total new funding in the 1982 budget. An 8 per cent salary increase would be effective September 1, 1981 for public school teachers and other instructional and support personnel, as well as the same raise for school bus drivers, effective July 1, 1981. An 8 per cent increase would be effective September 1, 1981 for academic personnel in our University System and July 1, 1981 for non-academic personnel. State employees would get a 7 per cent increase, with a $700 minimum, effective July 1, 1981. 94 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE, Considering that inflation is still in the 12 to 13 per cent range, these are minimum increases that we should consider for our teachers and state employees. For our public schools, I am recommending the largest sum of new money going to any agency a total of $60,525,086, excluding the pay raise fund. Most of this increase obviously reflects inflation, and the only improvement of any major significance is $5,874,789 for compensatory education to help ninth graders who have achieved less than 70 per cent of the reading or math objectives on the eighth grade criterion referenced tests. I know that you are aware of the discussions about social promotions and automatic graduations. Our State Board of Education has made it clear that it is going to require that high school students pass all the competency-based high school graduation requirements if they are to receive a diploma. In Florida and other states, there have actually been court decisions ordering remedial instruction if social promotions are to be eliminated. The class of 1985, our eighth graders of today, will be the first to fulfill all these requirements on attendance, Carnegie units and demonstrated competency in adult life skills, as learner, individual, citizen, consumer and producer. The funds I am proposing will provide additional instructional help to those ninth graders in fiscal year 1982 so that they will have a better opportunity to meet the examination aspect of the competency-based graduation. Legally and morally, it is necessary for us to provide this compensatory education if we are going to require these competencybased tests for graduation. To help meet the cost of inflation and provide improvements, I am also recommending for our public schools $9,532,000 to increase maintenance and operations funds from $1,800 to $2,000 per state allotted instructional unit...an increase in instructional media from $400 to $450 per unit....$6,596,692 to provide a number of improvements in vocational education....$6,987,482 for increased pupil transportation expenses and $925,144 to purchase new buses. I am also recommending $1,666,375 to fund 110 special education vacancies. Also, the $75 million in property tax relief started in fiscal year 1980 is being continued and is channeled to local boards of education through the State Board of Education. For the University System, I am recommending an increase of $31,042,795, with most of these funds allocated to the formula which provides a lump sum appropriation for direct operation of the state's 33 colleges and universities. One improvement item is $1.7 million in state funds to be added with federal government and Georgia Tech funds to construct a $5.1 million Advanced Technology Development Center near Georgia Tech. For the state's Aid to Families with Dependent Children Program, I am recommending $7,664,025 in state funds to increase the present standard of need payments from 85 to 95 per cent. For a family of four, this would represent an 11.9 per cent increase in benefits. Besides the benefits increase, these funds would also provide for a continuing growth in the number of AFDC recipients. Also for the Department of Human Resources, I am recommending $2,245,000 for renovations to the Gracewood State School and Hospital to meet ICF/MR standards. For 1982, I am recommending that the state's mental health budget be increased over $12.2 million from its current 1981 level. Included in this increase are a number of improvements which I feel are vital to the further advancement of Georgia's mental health and mental retardation services. To help meet problems in our prisons and comply with a court order to improve the conditions of our institutions, I am recommending a budget increase of $14,132,034 for the THURSDAY, JANUARY 15, 1981 95 Department of Offender Rehabilitation. These are basically program increases that complement my recommendations in the amended 1981 budget for a cash outlay of $31.3 million for construction projects. It will be necessary that we fund two new prisons that recently opened in Savannah and Atlanta. The first full year funding in 1982 will require appropriations of $4,743,716 to house 1,219 inmates. Medicaid is one of the fastest rising programs in state government. It is necessary for me to request the appropriation of $200,253, 912 in 1982 to operate this program. When combined with federal funds, the total cost of Medicaid next year will be $641,152,137. The state portion of 1982 expenses represents an increase of $32,462,239 over the present Appropriations Act before any supplemental funds are taken into consideration. It is $85,278,821 more than we spent in 1980. When you consider that the Medicaid program was only started in 1968 with state funds of $7.8 million, the meteoric growth of this program is obvious. Of the recommended state funds for 1982, $195,752,900 are for benefits. This is an increase of 19.4 per cent over fiscal year 1981. The increase is primarily due to rising costs of medical care, increased utilization of services and a reduction in federal financial participation. That reduction translates into $2,465,000 in additional state funds required in 1982 for the same level of service. If the federal government had retained its same participation rate that was in effect when Medicaid started in 1968, Georgia's share of the program would be $40 million less next year. These are funds that could have been spent on other programs. Through a combination of additional user fees and new state funds, we are proposing substantial increases in services provided our citizens by the Department of Natural Resources. Of an increase of $8,845,413 in the department's budget for 1982, some $4.5 million would come from increased user fees, including a proposal before the General Assembly to increase hunting and fishing license fees by $3.5 million. This $3.5 million would be used to improve game and fish programs. If the fees aren't approved by the General Assembly, the program improvements would be deleted from the budget. An additional $1 million increase already imposed by the Board of Natural Resources in new park fees would be utilized for improving services at state parks and historic sites. Almost $3 million in the department's recommendations are actually pass-through funds....including $2 million for Jekyll Island for improving existing facilities to attract more visitors....and $907,788 for the Great Park Authority, Great Park funding would provide a full-time staff, $400,000 to design an amphi-theater and $200,000 for intra-park transportation and security to promote public use. Another $2 million in state funds is recommended for a major expansion at Unicoi State Park to make this park self-sufficient. For the Department of Public Safety, I am recommending funds to replace 249 cars, to pay for higher motor fuel costs and to add ten troopers to the metro traffic enforcement unit that patrols the interstate highways in the Atlanta Metropolitan area. By aiding the police personnel of Atlanta in this duty, it is anticipated that the city can shift the officers now assigned to this function to higher priority criminal investigation duties. In summary, some other recommendations include: $1,606,000 to increase tuition equalization grants from $600 to $700. $6,377,000 to improve retirement benefits for Georgia teachers including raising the minimum retirement formula factor from 1.88 to 1.92 per cent....providing automatic 96 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE, cost-of-living increases to retirees of local systems and raising the minimum floor for retirement benefits from $10 to $12 times the number of years of service. $13 million to increase employer contributions to the state employee health insurance programs because of increased usage and costs of the program. $1,346,963 to increase mileage reimbursement from 18 to 20 cents per mile due to the increased cost incurred by state employees who must use their private cars on state business. $2,701,505.45 for increases in workers compensation payments. In drafting my budget recommendations, there was one problem that particularly bothered me as I mentioned in the State of the State address....and that is the large amount of federal funds dropping out. This problem seems to worsen every year. In fiscal year 1982, we are losing almost $125 million in federal funds, including $50.8 million in revenue sharing. Since revenue sharing funds have been used to help pay the state's share of retirement benefits for teachers, it is necessary to supplant these with state funds. Now I want to tell you about the remaining $74 million in federal funds that are dropping out. I told you that there are programs formerly financed by these funds which will be eliminated or drastically reduced, and that you could expect to hear some cries of anguish. You will find in my budget document that I have only recommended that you fund $8.4 million of these $74 million federal cuts. You have heard me say many times that we were going to have to bite the bullet, but these were federal bullets that we did not mold. In closing, I would like to inject a word of caution about the Superior Court ruling last week relating to the funding of public education in Georgia. This decision was by a trial court and whether it will be upheld by the Supreme Court is far from being a certainty. Even if it were to be affirmed, it would not become effective, according to the terms of the order, for two years and four months from January 7. The General Assembly has been responsible in the past in reacting to and complying with the many court decisions we have had to face. You will recall the decision by the Supreme Court that declared unconstitutional the local option sales tax. This drastically affected the tax base of many of our cities and counties. We had doomsday cheerleaders then who advocated the abandonment of local option sales tax. We put together a great team of constitutional lawyers to draft a new local option sales tax. Despite the dire warnings of unconstitutionality by the doomsday cheerleaders, you passed a new local option sales tax. The Supreme Court upheld your work, and our people will enjoy this alternative to property taxation for years to come. I am not suggesting that you put the problem raised by this new lower court order on the back burner, but neither do I think we ought to put all other needs of our state on the back burner either. If it is necessary to make any changes in the funding of public education we have two more sessions to work on the problem. The budget proposals that I have submitted to you last week and which I am making today should be considered on their own merit. They should not be shunted aside and forgotten because we might have to consider new education funding priorities at some future date. THURSDAY, JANUARY 15, 1981 97 As we have done with all problems over the past six years, we will address thex full extent of this problem when we know completely what is involved. I've submitted budget recommendations to you today which I feel are prudent and responsible. I know that we have not met all the state's needs and that we have not kept up with inflation in every category of state government. But neither have the taxpayers of this state, in meeting the needs of their families, been able to keep up with inflation. State government has to continue coping like ordinary people who pay their bills and don't have anything left over for frills. Government cannot be all things to all people, but it can strike a balance between improvements to benefit the lives of Georgians and the need to simply pay the bills in a period of unrelenting inflation.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF GEORGIA: Section 1. Code Title 88, known as the Georgia Health Code, as amended, is hereby amended by adding a new Code chapter, to be designated Code Chapter 88-19B, to read as follows: "CHAPTER 88-19B LONG-TERM CARE FACILITIES: RESIDENTS' BILL OF RIGHTS 88-1901B. Short title. This chapter shall be known and may be cited as the 'Bill of Rights for Residents of Long-term Care Facilities.' 88-1902B. Definitions. For the purposes of this chapter, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise: (1) 'Administrator' means a person duly licensed as a nursing home administrator under the Act creating the Georgia State Board of Nursing Home Administrators, approved April 8, 1968 (Ga. Laws 1968, p. 1143), as now or hereafter amended, who operates or manages or is in charge of a long-term care facility. (2) 'Department' means the Department of Human Resources. (3) 'Long-term care facility' or 'facility' means any intermediate care home, skilled nursing home, or intermingled home now or hereafter subject to regulation and licensure by the department. (4) 'Resident' means any person who is receiving treatment or care in any longterm care facility. Such resident shall be entitled to exercise all rights provided hereunder except as limited by a court of competent jurisdiction or by applicable law. (5) 'Guardian' means a resident's legal guardian or conservator, or the parent of a minor representative who does not have a duly appointed guardian. (6) 'Representative' is a person authorized by a resident or his guardian to act for the resident as an official delegate or agent. 88-1903B. Legislative intent. The General Assembly finds that persons residing within long-term care facilities are isolated from the community and often lack the means to assert fully their rights as individual citizens. The General Assembly further recognizes the need for these persons to live within the least restrictive environment possible in order to retain their individuality and personal freedom. It is therefore the intent of the General Assembly to preserve the dignity and personal integrity of residents of longterm care facilities through the recognition and declaration of rights safeguarding against encroachments upon each resident's need for self-determination. It is the further intent of the General Assembly that this Act complement and not duplicate or substitute for other survey and inspection programs regarding long-term care facilities. Every effort shall be made to use the long-term care ombudsman, pursuant to Code Chapter 28-19A, to resolve complaints related to resident's rights. 592 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE, 88-1904B. Compliance, (a) Each facility shall establish written policies and procedures in accordance with the provisions of this chapter and shall provide for the implementa tion and continuing compliance with this chapter.

Rights relating to transfer or discharge, (a) Except in an emergency, where the resident or other residents are subject to an imminent and substantial danger that only immediate transfer or discharge will relieve or reduce, a facility may involuntarily transfer a resident only in the following situations and after other reasonable alterna tives to transfer have been exhausted: (1) A physician determines that failure to transfer the resident will threaten the health or safety of the resident or others and documents that determination in the resident's medical record. If the physician determines that the facility cannot provide care, treatment, and services which are adequate and appropriate, it shall be conclu sively presumed that the failure to transfer will threaten the health or safety of the resident. If the basis for the transfer or discharge is the safety of the resident himself, the resident shall not be involuntarily transferred or discharged unless a physician determines that such transfer or discharge is not reasonably expected to endanger the resident to a greater extent than remaining in the facility and documents that deter mination in the resident's medical records. (2) The facility does not participate in, or voluntarily or involuntarily ceases to operate or participate in, the program which reimburses for the resident's care. (3) Nonpayment of allowable fees has occurred. The conversion of a resident from private pay status to Medicaid eligibility due to exhaustion of personal financial resources, or from Medicare to Medicaid, does not constitute nonpayment of fees under this Code section. (4) When the findings of a Medicare or Medicaid medical necessity review deter mine that the resident no longer requires the level of care provided at the facility. (b) If the facility voluntarily or involuntarily ceases to operate or participate in the program which reimburses for the resident's care, the facility must cooperate fully with the State Medicaid Agency and the Health Care Financing Administration Regional Office in the implementation of any transfer planning and transfer counseling conducted by these agencies. (c) The facility shall assist the resident and guardian in finding a reasonably appro priate alternative placement prior to the proposed transfer or discharge. The plan for such transfer or discharge shall be designed to mitigate the effects of transfer stress to the resident. Such plan shall include counseling the resident, guardian, or representative regarding available community resources and informing the appropriate state or social service organization. (d) The facility must notify the resident, guardian or representative, and attending physician at least 30 days before any involuntary transfer, except as specified in para graph (4) of subsection (a) of this Code section. This notice must be in writing and con tain: (1) The reasons for the proposed transfer; (2) The effective date of the proposed transfer; (3) Notice of the right to a hearing pursuant to Code Section 1922B and the right to representation by legal counsel; and (4) The location to which the facility proposes to transfer the resident. (e) The resident shall receive at least 15 days' notice prior to an involuntary intrafacility transfer. (f) If two residents in a facility are married and the facility proposes to transfer involuntarily one spouse to another facility at a similar level of care, the facility must give the other spouse notice of his or her right to be transferred to the same facility. If the spouse notifies a facility in writing that he wishes to be transferred, the facility must transfer both spouses on the same day, pending availability of accommodations. (g) Each resident shall be discharged from a facility after the resident or guardian gives the administrator or person in charge of the facility notice of the resident's desire to be discharged and the date of the expected departure. Where the resident appears to be incapable of living independently of the facility, the facility shall notify the Department of Family and Children Services in order to obtain social or protective assistance for the resident immediately. The notice of the discharge by the resident or guardian, the expected and actual date thereof, and notice to the department where WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1981 597 required shall be documented in the resident's records. Upon such discharge and, if required, notice to the department, the facility is relieved from any further responsibility for the resident's care, safety, or well-being. (h) Whenever allowed by the resident's health condition, a resident shall be provided treatment and care, rehabilitative services, and assistance by the facility to prepare the resident to return to the resident's home or other living situation less restrictive than the facility. Upon the request of the resident, guardian, or representative, the facility shall provide him with information regarding available resources and inform him of the appropriate state or social service organizations. (i) Each resident transferred from a facility to a hospital, other health care facility, or trial alternative living placement shall have the right to return to the facility immedi ately upon discharge from the hospital or other health care facility or upon termination of the trial living placement, provided that the resident has continued to pay the facility or third-party payment is provided for the period of the resident's absence. In cases of nonpayment to the facility during such absence, a resident who requests to return to a facility from a hospital shall be admitted by the facility to the first bed available after discharge from the hospital. 88-1918B.

Notwithstanding that a valid proxy is outstanding, the powers of the proxy holder are suspended if the maker is present at a meeting of the members and elects to vote in person. (4) If the proxy for the same member confers authority upon two or more persons and does not otherwise provide, a majority of such persons present at the meeting, or if only one is present, then that one, may exercise all the powers conferred by the proxy; but if the proxy holders present at the meeting are divided as to the right and manner of voting in any particular case, and there is no majority, the vote of the member granting the proxy shall be prorated.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF GEORGIA: Section 1. Code Title 34A, known as the Georgia Municipal Election Code, as amended, is hereby amended by adding in subsection (j) of Code Section 34A-201 immedi ately preceding the semicolon appearing at the end of the subsection the following: "and to transmit immediately to the Secretary of State a copy of any publication in which a 'call' for a special primary, election, or runoff is issued", so that when so amended subsection (j) of Code Section 34A-201 shall read as follows: "(j) To prepare and publish, in the manner provided by this Code, all notices and advertisements in connection with the conduct of elections; which may be required by law and to transmit immediately to the Secretary of State a copy of any publication in^ which a 'call' for a special primary, election, or runoff is issued;". Section 2. Said Code title is further amended by adding a new subsection (c) at the end of Code Section 34A-501 to read as follows: "(c) For municipalities maintaining their own registration list, the following shall apply: Any person desiring to register as an elector shall apply to a registrar or a deputy and shall furnish such officer with proper identification and information which will enable him to fill in all blanks appearing on the registration card. For purposes of this Code section, proper identification means a driver's license, social security card, birth certificate, or any other document as will reasonably reflect the true identity of the applicant. On completion of the form the officer shall administer the oath to the appli cant and then have him sign it, and the officer shall attest it. Upon request of the appli cant, the officer taking the application shall read or repeat the oath distinctly to the applicant and, if the applicant cannot sign his name, the officer shall sign it for him, the applicant making his mark thereto." Section 3. Said Code title is further amended by striking the last sentence of Code Section 34A-522, which reads as follows: "The board of registrars shall thereafter correct the electors' list accordingly.", in its entirety and inserting in lieu thereof the following: "Such forms may also be used to notify the board of registrars of a change in an elector's name.

In the event any elector moves to a resi dence within the municipality which has a different address from the address contained on such person's registration card, it shall be his duty to notify the board of registrars of such fact, and the board shall place such person's name on the proper list of electors. If the board, of its own knowledge, knows of such move, it may make the proper changes. Any elector who moves to a residence within the municipality but into a differ ent election district or who moves to a residence in the same election district but at a different address and fails to notify the board of registrars of such fact prior to an elec tion or primary shall vote in the district of his former residence for such election or pri mary and for any runoffs resulting therefrom. The superintendent of an election shall make available at each polling place forms which shall be completed by each such elec tor to reflect his present legal residence. Such forms may also be used to notify the board of registrars of a change in an elector's name. The board of registrars shall there after place the elector hi the proper election district and correct the electors' list accord ingly. If the elector is placed in an election district other than the one in^ which he has previously been voting, he shall be notified of his new polling place by first-class mail."

To be acceptable under this Code section, a pauper's affidavit must show on its face that the candidate has neither the assets nor the income to pay the qualifying fee otherwise required." Section 5. Said Code title is further amended by striking the next to the last sen tence of subsection (c) of Code Section 34A-1209, which reads as follows: "If a poll watcher persists in interfering with the conduct of the election, after being duly warned by the poll manager or superintendent, he may be removed by such offi cial.", and inserting in lieu thereof the following: "Without in any way limiting the authority of poll managers, poll watchers are prohib ited from talking to voters, checking electors' lists, or participating in any other form of campaigning while they are behind the enclosed space.

The General Assembly further finds that, in the interest of protecting individual autonomy, such prolongation of life for persons with a terminal condition may cause loss of patient dignity and unnecessary pain and suffering, while providing nothing medically necessary or beneficial to the patient. The General Assembly further finds that there exists considerable uncertainty in the medical and legal professions as to the legality of terminating the use of extraordinary lifesustaining procedures in certain situations. In recognition of the dignity and privacy which patients have a right to expect, the General Assembly hereby declares that the laws of the State of Georgia shall recognize the right of a competent adult person to make a living will instructing his physician to with hold or withdraw extraordinary life-sustaining procedures in the event of a terminal condi tion.

No policy of life insurance shall be legally impaired or invalidated in any manner by the withholding or withdrawal of extraordinary life-sustaining procedures from an insured patient, nor shall such withholding or withdrawal operate to deny any additional insur ance benefits for accidental death of the patient in any case in which the terminal condi tion of the patient is the result of accident, notwithstanding any term of the policy to the contrary. (c) No physician, hospital, or skilled nursing facility, or other health provider and no health care service plan, insurer issuing disability insurance, self-insured employee wel fare benefit plan, or nonprofit hospital service plan shall require any person to execute a living will as a condition for being insured for, or receiving, health care services. 88-3509. Penalties. Any person who willfully conceals, cancels, defaces, obliterates, alters, or damages the living will of another without such declarant's written consent or who witnesses a living will knowing at the time he is not eligible to witness such living will under Code Section 88-3502, or who coerces or attempts to coerce a person into making a living will, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.

Section 3. Nothing in this Act shall impair or supersede any legal right or legal responsibility which any person may have to effect the withholding or withdrawal of extra ordinary life-sustaining procedures in any lawful manner. In such respect the provisions of this Act are cumulative. Section 4. Nothing in this Act shall be construed to condone, authorize, or approve mercy killing or to permit any affirmative or deliberate act or omission to end life other than to permit the process of dying as provided in this Act. Furthermore, nothing in this Act shall be construed to condone, authorize, or approve abortion. Section 5. In the event any section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase of this Act shall be declared or adjudged invalid or unconstitutional, such adjudication shall in no manner affect the other sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, or phrases of this Act, which shall remain of full force and effect as if the section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase so declared or adjudged invalid or unconstitutional were not originally a part hereof. The General Assembly hereby declares that it would have passed the remaining parts of this Act if it had known that such part or parts hereof would be declared or adjudged invalid or unconstitutional.

The value of any improvements which are made after the base fair market value is estab lished and which require a building permit to be obtained shall be added to the estab lished base fair market value. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply with respect to valuation of any homestead property only so long as the property is actually occupied by the owner primarily as a homestead and is claimed and qualifies for the homestead exemption allowed under Georgia law.

For the purposes of this paragraph, any change of title between spouses shall not be considered a sale, purchase, or change of ownership. The assessed value of such homestead property for the purposes of taxation as specified in this paragraph shall be the value determined pursuant to this paragraph multiplied by the percentage specified by law for assessment of tangible property; pro vided, however, in case of error, or in case incorrect information is provided, the Board of Tax Assessors may make correction to the January 1, 1983, value; or the value on January 1 of the first year when homestead exemption was allowed and claimed after January 1, 1983; or the value on January 1 of the year following the last change of own ership after January 1, 1983, whichever is later.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF GEORGIA: Section 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the "Bird Dealers Licensing Act." Section 2. Findings. The General Assembly finds that the sale of exotic and pet birds presents a serious potential hazard to the health of livestock and humans due to the potential of transmission of disease by birds. The General Assembly further finds that reg ulation of bird dealers is a necessary means of minimizing this hazard. Section 3. Definitions. The following words shall have the following meanings unless the context clearly indicates otherwise: (1) "Bird dealer" means any person engaged in the business of dealing in, purchas ing, breeding, or offering for sale (whether at wholesale or retail) any exotic or pet birds or birds customarily kept as pets. (2) "Department" means the Department of Agriculture. (3) "Person" means any individual, firm, partnership, corporation, estate, trust, fiduciary, or other group or combination acting as a unit. Section 4. License required, (a) It shall be unlawful for any person to act as a bird dealer unless such person has a valid bird dealer's license.

Section 5. Required records, (a) Every bird dealer shall keep records sufficient to identify: THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1981 1283 (1) Each exotic or pet bird in his possession or sold by him by species and descrip tion; (2) The name, address, and telephone number of the person from whom each such bird was acquired and, if that person is a licensed bird dealer, then his license number or, if that person is not a licensed dealer, then his driver's license number or social security number or federal tax identification number, if any, or other such identifica tion as may be available; (3) The name, address, and telephone number of the person to whom each such bird is transferred and, if that person is a licensed bird dealer, then his license num ber or, if that person is not a licensed bird dealer, then his driver's license number or social security number, if any, or other such identitication as may be available; and (4) Any such bird which the dealer knows to be or have been sick or diseased or to have died. (b) The department may require periodic reports of any or all of the records required by subsection (a) of this section. The department may require the keeping of additional records; and all required records shall be made available for inspection by the department.

Section 7. Regulation by the Department of Human Resources. If the Department of Human Resources elects to regulate the sale or transportation of exotic or pet birds under the authority of Code Section 88-1205, then the Department of Human Resources shall cooperate with the Department of Agriculture in developing and implementing such regulation. Section 8. Rules and regulations. The Commissioner of Agriculture may make any rules and regulations not inconsistent with this Act governing dealing in or transportation of exotic or pet birds. Section 9. (Reserved) Section 10. Enforcement procedure, (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, whenever it may appear to the Commissioner of Agriculture or his agent, either upon investigation or otherwise, that any person has engaged in, or is engaging in, or is about to engage in any act, practice, or transaction which is prohibited by any law or regulation governing activities for which a license from the Department of Agriculture is required by this Act, whether or not the person has so registered or obtained such a license or permit, the Commissioner of Agriculture may issue an order, if he deems it to be in the public interest or necessary for the protection of the citizens of this state, prohibiting such person from continuing such act, practice, or transaction or suspending or revoking any such reg istration, license, or permit held by such person. (b) In situations where persons otherwise would be entitled to a hearing prior to an order entered pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 10, the Commissioner of Agricul ture may issue such an order to be effective upon a later date without hearing unless a person subject to the order requests a hearing within ten days after receipt of the order. Failure to make the request shall constitute a waiver of any provision of law for a hearing. The order shall contain or shall be accompanied by a notice of opportunity for hearing stating that a hearing must be requested within ten days of receipt of the notice and order. The order and notice shall be served in person by the Commissioner of Agriculture 1284 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE, or his agent or by certified mail, return receipt requested.

(c) In situations where persons otherwise would be entitled to a hearing prior to an order, the Commissioner of Agriculture may issue an order to be effective immediately if the Commissioner or his agent has reasonable cause to believe that an act, practice, or transaction is occurring or is about to occur; that the situation constitutes a situation of imminent peril to the public safety or welfare; and that the situation therefore requires emergency action. The emergency order shall contain findings to this effect and reasons for the determination. The order shall contain or be accompanied by a notice of opportu nity for hearing which may provide that a hearing will be held if and only if a person sub ject to the order requests a hearing within ten days of the receipt of the order and notice.

Upon such a request for hearing, the Commis sioner of Agriculture shall schedule and hold the hearing, unless postponed by mutual con sent, within 30 days after receipt by the Commissioner of Agriculture of the request therefor. The Commissioner of Agriculture shall give the person requesting the hearing notice of the time and place of the hearing by certified mail to the address specified in the request for hearing at least 15 days prior to the time of the hearing. (e) Except where in conflict with the express provisions of this Section 10 and the reasonable implication of such provisions, the provisions of the 'Georgia Administrative Procedure Act,' as now or hereafter amended, relating to contested cases shall be applica ble to the actions of the Commissioner of Agriculture taken pursuant to this Section 10 and to the conduct and judicial review of any hearings held as a result thereof.

Section 11. Nothing in this Act shall be construed to repeal or preempt any laws or parts of laws administered by the Department of Natural Resources except as to the licensing and permitting of Class Aves under subsection (b) of Code Section 45-1102. How ever, insofar as any authority created by this Act duplicates any other current or future authorities of the Department of Natural Resources with respect to Class Aves, the Department of Agriculture and the Department of Natural Resources shall cooperate in the administration of those duplicated authorities.

County tax for county purposes on life insurance companies; deduction of taxes paid to counties from state tax. (a) There is hereby imposed a county tax for coun ty purposes on each life insurance company doing business within the unincorporated area of said county based solely upon gross direct premiums, as defined in section 56-1303, as are received during the preceding calendar year from policies insuring per sons residing within the unincorporated area of such county. The rate of such tax shall be one percent of such premiums except that such tax shall not apply to the gross direct premiums of an insurance company which qualifies, pursuant to section 56-1305, for the reduction to one-half of one percent of the state tax imposed by section 56-1303. The tax imposed herein shall not apply to annuity considerations.

(d) For the purposes of this section, 'life insurance company' means a company which is authorized to transact only the class of insurance designated in section 56-305 as class (1). (e) The tax imposed by this Code section shall be collected by the Commissioner on behalf of counties in the same manner and on the same date as the state tax on insur ance premiums.

Said populations shall be measured by the most recent federal decennial census. (g) The proceeds from the county tax levied for county purposes provided for by this section shall be separated from other county funds and shall be used by county govern ing authorities solely for the purpose of reducing ad valorem taxes of the inhabitants of the unincorporated areas of such counties. In fixing the ad valorem tax millage rate for the year 1982 and any year thereafter, the governing authorities of counties shall be authorized and directed to reduce such ad valorem tax millage rate on taxable property within the unincorporated areas of such counties to offset all of the proceeds derived from the tax provided for in this section." Section 3. This Act shall become effective upon its approval by the Governor or upon its becoming law without his approval. Section 4.

(b) If the employee or his dependents shall accept compensation or other benefits under this law or begin proceedings therefor, the employer or, in the event the employer is insured against liability hereunder, then the insurer shall be subrogated to the rights of the employee or his dependents against such third party, to the extent of the amount of compensation benefits paid or to be paid as provided by subsection (c) of this section. (c) (1) In all claims or actions at law against such a third party, the employee, or his dependents or those entitled by law to sue in the event he is deceased, shall sue for the employee individually and for the use and benefit of the employer, if a self-in surer, or employer's insurance carrier, in the event compensation benefits are claimed or paid, and such suit may be brought in the name of the employee or his dependents or those entitled by law to sue in the event he is deceased, as plaintiff or, at the option of such plaintiff, may be brought in the name of such plaintiff and for the use and benefit of the employer or insurance carrier, as the case may be. Upon suit being filed, the employer or the insurance carrier, as the case may be, may file in the suit a notice of payment of compensation and medical benefits to the employee or his dependents, which said notice shall constitute a lien upon any judgment or settlement recovered to the extent that the court may determine to be their pro rata share for compensation and medical benefits paid or to be paid under the provisions of this law. The employer or carrier shall recover from the judgment, after attorney's fees and costs incurred by the employee or dependent in that suit have been deducted, 100 per cent of what it has paid and future benefits to be paid, unless the employee or depen dent can demonstrate to the court that he did not recover the full value of damages sustained because of comparative negligence or because of limits of insurance coverage and collectability. The burden of proof will be upon the employee. Such proration shall be made by the judge of the trial court upon application therefor and notice to the adverse party. Notice of suit being filed shall be served upon the employer and compensation carrier and upon all parties to the suit or their attorneys of record by the employee. Notice of payment of compensation benefits shall be served upon the employee and upon all parties to the suit or their attorneys of record by the employer and compensation carrier. (2) If the employer or insurance carrier has given written notice of his rights of subrogation to such third party and, thereafter, settlement of any such claim or action at law is made, either before or after suit is filed, and the parties fail to agree on the proportion to be paid to each, upon application of either party a superior court judge of the county in which the cause of action arose shall determine the amount to be paid to each such third party in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (1) of this subsection. (d) (1) If the injured employee or his dependents, as the case may be, fail to bring suit against such third party within one year after the cause of action thereof shall have accrued, the employer, if self-insurer, and if not, the insurance carrier, may, after giving 30 days' notice to the injured employee or his dependents and the injured employee's attorney, if represented by counsel, institute suit against such third party, either in his own name or as provided by subsection (c), and, in the event suit is so instituted shall be subrogated to and entitled to retain from any judgment recovered against, or settlement made with, such third party, the following: All amounts paid as compensation and medical benefits under the provisions of this law and the present value of all future compensation benefits payable, to be reduced to its present value, and to be retained, as a trust from which future payments of compensation are to be made, together with all court costs, including attorney's fees expended in the prosecu tion of such suit, to be prorated as provided by subsection (c). The remainder of the moneys derived from such judgment or settlement shall be paid to the employee or his dependents, as the case may be. (2) If the carrier or employer does not bring suit within 18 months following the accrual of the cause of action against such a third party, the right of action shall revert to the employee (or in the case of his death, those entitled by law to sue), and in such event the provisions of subsection (c) shall apply. 1558 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE, (e) In all cases under subsection (d) of this Code section involving such third party, where compensation benefits under this law are paid or are to be paid, settlement either before or after suit is instituted shall not be made except upon agreement of the injured employee or his dependents and the employer or his insurance carrier, as the case may be. (f) Any amounts recovered under this Code section by the employer or his insurance carrier shall be credited against the loss-experience of said employer." Section 4.

Section 8. In the event any section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase of this Act shall be declared or adjudged invalid or unconstitutional, such adjudication shall in no manner affect the other sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, or phrases of this Act, which shall remain of full force and effect as if the section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase so declared or adjudged invalid or unconstitutional were not originally a part hereof.

Laws 1979, p. 1284), is hereby amended by striking Code Section 32-911 and inserting in its place a new Code section to read as follows: "32-911. Immunization, (a) As used in this Code section, the following terms have the following meanings: (1) 'Certificate of immunization' means immunization shall be deemed to exist when certification is made by a physician licensed under the laws of this state or from an appropriate official of a local board of health, on a form provided by the Depart ment of Human Resources, that a certain named person has been immunized in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the Department of Human Resources. (2) 'Facility' means any public or private day-care center or nursery intended for the care, supervision, or instruction of children. (3) 'Responsible official' means a school superintendent, a school principal, or a chief operating officer of a school or facility. (4) 'School' means any public or private educational program or institution instructing children at any level or levels, kindergarten through twelfth grade, or chil dren of ages five through 19 if grade divisions are not used. (b) No child shall be admitted to or attend any school or facility in this state unless such child shall first have submitted a certificate of immunization to the responsible official of the school or facility. The responsible official of any school or facility may grant a waiver of the certification requirement for a justified reason. The waiver may extend from the date of first admittance or of first attendance, whichever is earlier, for 30 calendar days. The waiver may not be extended beyond 30 calendar days, and upon expiration of the waiver, the child shall not be admitted to or permitted to attend the school or facility unless the child submits a certificate of immunization. (c) The Department of Human Resources shall promulgate rules and regulations specifying those diseases against which immunization is required and the standards for such immunizations. The school or facility shall maintain on file the certificates of immunization for all children attending the school or facility. All facilities shall file a report annually with the Department of Human Resources. The report shall be filed on forms prepared by the Department of Human Resources and shall state the number of children attending the school or facility, the number of children who did not submit cer tificates of immunization within the waiver period, and the number of children who are exempted from the certification requirement for medical or religious reasons. (d) Any responsible official permitting any child to remain in a school or facility in violation of this Code section and any parent or guardian of any child who intentionally does not comply with the provisions of this Code section shall be guilty of a misdemean or and upon conviction shall be punished by a fine of not more than $100.00 or by imprisonment for not more than 12 months. The Department of Human Resources may adopt rules and regulations for the enforcement of this Code section. The Department THURSDAY, MARCH 5, 1981 1631 of Human Resources and the local board of health or either of them may institute a civil action in the superior court of the county in which the defendant resides for injunctive relief to prevent a threatened or continuing violation of any provision of this Code sec tion. (e) If, after examination by the local board of health or any physician licensed under the laws of this state, or of any other state having comparable laws governing the licensure of physicians, any child to whom this Code section applies is found to have any physical disability which may make vaccination undesirable, a certificate to that effect issued by the local board of health or such physician licensed under the laws of this or such other state may be accepted in lieu of a certificate of immunization and shall exempt the child from having a certificate of immunization until the disability is relieved. (f) The provisions of this Code section shall not apply to a child whose parent or legal guardian objects to immunization of the child on the grounds that such immunization conflicts with the religious beliefs of the parent or guardian; however, the immunization may be required in cases when such disease is in epidemic stages. For a child to be exempt from immunizations on religious grounds, the parent or guardian must first furnish the responsible official of the school or facility an affidavit in which the parent or guardian swears or affirms that the immunization required conflicts with the religious beliefs of the parent or guardian. (g) During an epidemic or a threatened epidemic of any disease preventable by an immunization required by the Department of Human Resources, unimmunized children may be excluded from the school or facility until: (1) They are immunized against the disease, unless they present valid evidence or prior disease; or (2) The epidemic or threat no longer constitutes a significant public health danger. (h) The certification requirement shall become effective for all children entering or attending facilities upon the effective date of this Act. The certification requirement shall apply to all children entering or attending schools: (1) On September 1, 1981, for all such children entering or attending kindergarten or the first, ninth, tenth, eleventh or twelfth grades, or of the equivalent ages if grade divisions are not used; (2) On September 1, 1982, for all such children entering or attending all grades, or of all ages if grade divisions are not used." Section 2. The "Children and Youth Act," approved March 14, 1963 (Ga. Laws 1963, p. 81), as amended, particularly by an Act approved March 23, 1977 (Ga. Laws 1977, p. 787), is hereby amended by striking in its entirety Section 27, relating to immunization of children attending day-care centers. Section 3. This Act shall become effective upon its approval by the Governor or upon its becoming law without his approval. Section 4. All laws and parts of laws in conflict with this Act are hereby repealed.
