These improvements bring together the administration and enforcement of Bingo and Lucky 7 regulation in one agency, the pari-mutuel Commission (currently these duties are divided between the Sweepstakes Commission and the Department of Safety), moving the Bureau of Environmental and Occupational Health from the Department of Health and Human Services to the Department of Environmental Services, and transferring the New Hampshire Estuaries Project and the Coastal Zone Management Program from the Office of State Planning and Energy Programs to the Department of Environmental Services. The bill also brings the appointing process for unclassified employees in the Department of Environmental Services and the Department of Education in line with other high level appointments. The standard used in other agencies is that the Governor appoints commissioners with the consent of the Executive Council and commissioners nominate division directors for appointment by the Governor and Executive Council. The Senate version of this bill also included a reorganization plan for the Department of Revenue Administration and a transfer of the Division of Public Works from the Department of Transportation to the Department of Administrative Services. The House amendment establishes study committees on these two changes. In addition, the House amendment removes provisions transferring the State Hospital Security Force from the Department of Health and Human Services to the Department of Safety and transferring the responsibility of issuing retail tobacco licenses from the Department of Revenue Administration to the Liquor Commission. The House amendment also establishes an intermediary appeals process for disciplinary actions taken by state boards and commissions. Under this process, an aggrieved party may appeal a board or commission decision to the highest ranking official of the agency to which the board or commission is administratively attached."}], "source": "House Calendar 32, 2004", "date": "2004-04-30", "dated": "printed", "cite": "HC 32", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2004%5CNo%2032%20April%2030%202004.pdf"}], "docket_reports": [{"date": "2004-03-16", "dated": "recorded", "body": "S", "committee": "Executive Departments and Administration", "side": "", "recommendation": "PASS WITH AMENDMENT", "vote_yeas": null, "vote_nays": null, "amendment": "0849", "new_title": false, "cite": "", "cite_url": ""}], "report_actions": [], "veto_message": null, "bill_note": null, "subject": "State Government", "subject_source": "granite record", "house_committee": "Executive Departments and Administration", "senate_committee": "Executive Departments and Administration", "lsr": "2004-3087", "docket_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=3087&sy=2004&txtsessionyear=2004&txtbillnumber=sb534&sortoption=billnumber", "documents": [{"label": "Bill status page", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/Bill_status.aspx?lsr=3087&sy=2004&txtsessionyear=2004&txtbillnumber=sb534&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "status"}, {"label": "Docket", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=3087&sy=2004&txtsessionyear=2004&txtbillnumber=sb534&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "docket"}, {"label": "SC 10", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2004%5CSC%2010.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "HC 32", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2004%5CNo%2032%20April%2030%202004.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "HC 34", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2004%5CNo%2034%20May%205%202004.pdf", "kind": "record"}], "amendments": [{"num": "0849", "kind": "Committee Amendment", "where": "committee", "date": "2004-03-17", "body": "S", "adopted": true, "vote_kind": "VV", "mover": "", "proposed_by": "", "text": "", "source": "", "targets": [], "supersedes": []}, {"num": "1693", "kind": "Enrolled Bill Amendment", "where": "enrolment", "date": "2004-05-25", "body": "S", "adopted": true, "vote_kind": "", "mover": "", "proposed_by": "", "text": "", "source": "", "targets": [], "supersedes": []}], "billtext": {"version": "Final version", "title": "", "analysis": "This bill:\n\nI.
