BILL NUMBER:  SB 971
  VETOED	DATE: 09/29/2010




To the Members of the California State Senate:
I am returning Senate Bill 971 without my signature.
This bill is unnecessary and attempts to create additional standards
that are already being adequately enforced through other regulatory
and administrative mechanisms.   Since the current standards of
practice for blood clotting products and service are already being
met through state and federal pharmacy laws, voluntary compliance and
existing state contract provisions, it is unclear what problem this
bill seeks to address.
For these reasons, I am unable to sign this bill.
Sincerely,

Arnold Schwarzenegger
