Senator Ashby's proposal to modify California's Nursing Practice Act would eliminate the requirement for the Board of Registered Nursing to obtain permission from the Department of Consumer Affairs Director when forming advisory committees.
Under current law, the Board must secure the Director's approval before establishing committees that provide guidance on implementing nursing regulations. The proposed change maintains the Board's authority to create these advisory bodies and preserves existing provisions for committee member compensation, including per diem payments and expense reimbursements as outlined in state code.
The measure requires fiscal committee review but does not include new appropriations or create additional local programs. Upon enactment, the Board would have direct authority to convene advisory committees without seeking external authorization, while retaining all other aspects of committee operations under current law.
