	Amend CSSB 1 as follows:                                                     
	In Article II, under Special Provisions Relating To All 
Health And Human Services Agencies, insert the following 
appropriately numbered section:
	Sec. ____ Standard of Care For Individuals                                     
	The Legislature finds that the care and well being of all 
individuals under the care of the state is a primary responsibility 
of the state.  It is the intent of the Legislature that the 
Executive Commissioner shall use transferability, rulemaking and 
administrative authority, and all necessary means to prevent abuse, 
neglect or exploitation and ensure the protection of all 
individuals under care of the state, including children, 
intellectually and developmentally disabled adults, and the 
elderly.  In the event that appropriations are insufficient to 
ensure appropriate levels of care for individuals, the Executive 
Commissioner, pursuant to the notification and approval 
requirements contained in other provisions, shall transfer 
necessary funds and request additional appropriation authority 
from the Legislative Budget Board.
