BACKGROUND:
The terms of office of six members of the Mental Health Advisory
Board (MHAB) expire May 31, 1991. In addition, there is
currently a vacant seat for a mental health professional. The
MHAB has nominated Ms. Morison, who is a retired psychiatric
nurse from Merrithew Memorial Hospital.
The MHAB recommends the reappointment of all six members whose
terms are expiring as well as the appointment of Ms. Morison and
our Committee agrees with these recommendations.
The State Law has recently been changed to somewhat alter the
composition requirements for the MHAB and we are asking that the
Clerk of the Board revise the composition sheet in the "Maddy
Book" to reflect these changes.
