Explanation
(This amendment restores language deleted in the introduced budget which would require the Department to include a provision in its Request for Proposals for deaf and hard of hearing relay services that the Norton Relay Center maintain a minimum 105 full-time equivalent positions. Language is modified to change the minimum number of positions maintained by the Relay Center from 105 to 90. This reduction in workforce at the Relay Center will be achieved only through voluntary retirements, transfers and disability retirements.)
