Transcript Highlights:
  • audit reporting is that students who were initially eligible for the scholarships dropped below the minimum
  • GPA or dropped below the minimum credit hour requirements and... ...below the minimum credit hour requirements
  • requirements, those students might, over the course of their attendance at college, have dropped below the minimum
  • Three cases were dismissed, and 20 cases resulted in a conviction and a court-ordered sentence.
  • release, 12 defendants received probation only, and four defendants received a suspended imposition of sentence
Summary: The committee first approved the minutes from the prior meeting and then heard several audit-related reports. The executive committee report noted audit and special reports were scheduled for standing committees and the full Legislative Joint Audit Committee, with one requested report still in progress. The City, County, and Local report covered delinquent private water and sewer audits, reinstatement of turnback funds for entities that filed required reports, and action involving the town of Daisy, which was directed to repay misused street funds at 10% of general fund revenue annually. The education and state agencies reports included higher education audits and state agency findings, with some reports filed and others deferred to the February meeting for additional information or corrective-action details. The committee then took up a special audit of the Charles W. Donaldson Scholars Academy at UA Little Rock. Legislative Audit reported that the program, funded with $10 million in desegregation money plus a $50,000 grant, awarded $1.87 million in scholarships to 379 students, with 116 graduates, but found numerous eligibility and disbursement problems, including scholarships to ineligible students, excessive awards, improper documentation, and unclear disposition of some assets. Committee members questioned UALR representatives about oversight, staffing, and whether funds were properly used, and also heard from Philander Smith College about its limited role in verifying enrollment. Members expressed concern about the program’s results and the lack of detail on accountability, and the committee voted to table the report until the next meeting for further review and requested additional information, including the federal court order and more detail on expenditures and oversight. Finally, the committee reviewed the annual disposition report on matters referred to prosecutors and the Attorney General for 2024. Staff said 164 matters were referred, with 28 resulting in criminal charges and convictions, 39 still under review, 96 not charged, and others dismissed or pending; 20 convictions produced fines, restitution, and audit-cost orders, and bond trust fund claims were paid in some cases. Prosecutor Coordinator and Attorney General representatives explained that some referrals do not meet criminal standards, may lack intent, or are otherwise not prosecutable, and members asked for more standardized reporting, clearer explanations of why cases are not charged, and more information on restitution efforts. The committee discussed possible templates, training, and better coordination, then voted to file the report and adjourned, with the next meeting set for February 12, 2026.

Summary: The Senate Health and Human Services Committee met, approved the March 25 minutes without objection, and heard testimony from Dr. Lynette Livesey, a nominee for the State Board of Psychologist Examiners. Dr. Livesey described her Arizona background, long career in psychology and public health, work with correctional and community mental health populations, and volunteer service. She said she has served on the board’s application review and complaint screening committees and values the board’s fair, collaborative approach, while noting concerns she has seen in family court-related complaints and the importance of communication among providers and agencies in behavioral health. Committee members asked about her experience on the board, challenges facing the board, and broader behavioral health issues such as access to services, coordination among professionals, and how to measure success. One member encouraged her to meet with caucus members and discuss family court issues further. After discussion, a motion was made to recommend Dr. Livesey’s confirmation to the full Senate. The committee voted 5 ayes, 0 noes, and 2 not voting to advance her nomination, and then adjourned.
