In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, today I have
vetoed Senate Bill 822 - Contracts for Residential Child Care Programs.
This bill requires the Governor's Office for Children to develop the State Resource
Plan for Residential Child Care Programs in consultation with specified agencies,
providers, counties, child advocates, and consumers; establishes the content of the
Plan; establishes specified requirements for contracts between specified agencies and
providers for residential child care programs; and requires the members of the
Children's Cabinet to adopt specified regulations.
House Bill 813, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me,
accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign Senate
Bill 822.
Very truly yours,
Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr.
Governor
