SPEAKER APPOINTS REPRESENTATIVE JOHN LUNSFORD
TO THE HOUSE STUDY COMMITTEE
ON PANDEMIC PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE

ATLANTA—Speaker of the House Glenn Richardson (R-Hiram) has tapped State Representative John Lunsford to serve on the House Study Committee on Pandemic Preparedness and Response.

“I am pleased that Representative Lunsford has accepted this responsibility,” Richardson said.  “I am confident that he will do a great job for our state.”

The committee will be making recommendations to the 2007 General Assembly concerning the state’s preparedness in the event of a public health emergency.  The members of the study committee will evaluate the state’s preparedness plan considering interagency cooperation, the coordination of medical care and medications, and other issues related to pandemic preparedness.

The committee was created by the passage of House Resolution 1560, authored by Rep. Clay Cox.  The committee will end its meeting on December 31, 2006.
