1 2 reprinted by the Senate, as follows:
1 3 #1. Page 31, by striking lines 9 through 13 and
1 4 inserting the following:
1 5 "b. (1) If at any time after September 30, 1998,
1 6 annualization of a region's current expenditures
1 7 indicates a region is at risk of exceeding its group
1 8 foster care expenditure target under section 232.143
1 9 by more than five percent, the department and juvenile
1 10 court services shall examine all group foster care
1 11 placements in that region in order to identify those
1 12 which might be appropriate for termination. In
1 13 addition, any aftercare services believed to be needed
1 14 for the children whose placements may be terminated
1 15 shall be identified. The department and juvenile
1 16 court services shall initiate action to set
1 17 dispositional review hearings for the placements
1 18 identified. In such a dispositional review hearing,
1 19 the juvenile court shall determine whether needed
1 20 aftercare services are available and whether
1 21 termination of the placement is in the best interest
1 22 of the child and the community.
1 23 (2) The department shall provide quarterly reports
1 24 to the judicial department, juvenile court services,
1 25 the legislative fiscal bureau, and decategorization
1 26 boards on the number of children placed in group
1 27 foster care and the amount of expenditure for group
1 28 foster care by county. The department shall
1 29 coordinate with the child welfare services work group
1 30 created in November 1997, by the legislative council
1 31 and with interested decategorization counties to
1 32 identify information systems and reports across all
1 33 services and placements that would support utilization
1 34 management decisions. The department shall identify
1 35 the resources needed to develop and implement such a
1 36 system and its fiscal benefits, and report to the
1 37 general assembly by February 1, 1999."
