	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 153, as introduced, Strickland. State boards and commissions:
salaries: suspension.
   Existing law provides for the payment of specified salaries to the
members of various state boards and commissions. A member of a state
board or commission may receive a per diem salary at a specified
rate, except for a member whose salary is set pursuant to certain
provisions of law.
   This bill would prohibit members appointed to specified state
boards and commissions from receiving a salary for the 2012-13,
2013-14, and 2014-15 fiscal years. This bill would authorize a member
of a state board or commission who is prohibited from receiving a
salary under these provisions to receive a specified per diem payment
during those fiscal years.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.
