This legislation provides that volunteers, such as those at the public schools, those involved with social services involving victim outreach, and those involved in the protection of life and property, while still being required to undergo necessary screenings, do not have to pay government fees charged for screenings. This would include police clearances and tuberculosis skin test. The exemption from paying for screenings would not apply, however, to screenings for drug testing or chest x-rays for those testing positive for tuberculosis.

Dear Legislative Secretary Brown:

Enclosed please fmd Substitute Bill No. 354 (LS), "AN ACT TO ADD 521 12 TO CHAPTER 2 OF TITLE 4 OF THE GUAM CODE ANNOTATED, RELATIVE TO EXEMPTING VOLUNTEERS WORKING IN THE GOVERNMENT FROM CERTAIN FEES", which was signed into law Public Law No. 25-151.

This legislation provides that volunteers, such as those at the public schools, those involved with social services involving victim outreach, and those involved in the protection of life and property, while still being required to undergo necessary screenings, do not have to pay government fees charged for screenings. This would include police clearances and tuberculosis skin test. The exemption from paying for screenings would not apply, however, to screenings for drug testing or chest x-rays for those testing positive for tuberculosis.

This cuts down on the expense involved for those who desire to volunteer their time in the very important volunteer programs, and would eliminate some of the discouragement fostered by too many hurdles and expenses being required for volunteerism.

I Lilzeslaturan Gucihan is of the opinion that since these individuals are working uncompensated for the benefit of the government of Guam and the community, that the cost of such screening should be responsibility of the govemment of Guam. Therefore, it is the intent of ZLiheslaturan GuHhan to exempt volunteers from certain screening costs associated with their service.

life and property. I Liheslaturan Gughan further finds that the screening of

volunteers similar to the types required for paid employees is necessary to protect

the integrity of the system. It does find however, that since these individuals are

working uncompensated for the benefit of the Government of Guam and the

community, that the cost of such screening should be responsibility of the

Government of Guam.

It is the intent of I Liheslaturan Guhan to exempt volunteers from certain

screening costs associated with their service.

Section 2. Section 22 12 is hereby added to Chapter 2 of Title 4, Guam Code

Annotated to read:

"$2212. Volunteers exempt from certain screening costs. All volunteers

working uncompensated in any agency of the government of Guam shall be

exempt from clearance and screening fees charged by Government of Guam - - - agencies including police and court clearances and skin test for tuberculosis

administered by a Govenunent of Guam agency. This exemption does not apply

to chest x-rays required of positive skin test readers or drug testing, however,

nothing herein shall prevent any appointing agency from paying for such

examinations for its volunteers."

i 53 Bill No. 35q (

Introduced by:

AN ACT TO ADD A NEW 92110 TO CHAPTER 2 OF TITLE 4, GUAM CODE ANNOTATED RELATIVE TO EXEMPTING VOLUNTEERS WORKING IN THE GOVERNMENT FROM CERTAIN FEES.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE PEOPLE OF GUAM:

Section 1. Legislative Findings and Intent. I Liheslaturan Guihan finds

that many Guam residents unselfishly volunteer their time to assist government

agencies in fulfilling their missions. This includes service in public schools,

social services involving victim outreach and those involved in the protection of

life and property. I Liheslaturan Gu5han further finds that the screening of

volunteers similar to the types required for paid employees is necessary to protect

the integrity of the system. It does find however, that since these individuals are

working uncompensated for the benefit of the Government of Guam and the

community, that the cost of such screening should be responsibility of the

Government of Guam.

It is the intent of I Liheslaturan GuAhan to exempt volunteers from certain

screening costs associated with their service.

Section 2. Section 2212 is hereby added to Chapter 2 of Title 4, Guam Code
