Sponsor Statement for SB 10
Extended Board of Public Accountancy

An Act extending the termination date of the Board of Public Accountancy.

Released: January 23, 2001

Under AS 08.04.010 the State Board of Public Accountancy regulates the professions of certified public accountants and public accountants by ensuring that the requirements laid out for licensure are met and adhered to.

The Board consists of seven members appointed by the governor. Each member shall be a resident of this state for at least one year. Five members shall be certified public accountants or public accountants and two members shall be public members.

The regulation and licensing of qualified certified public accountants safeguards the public by ensuring the competence and integrity of those who represent themselves as being certified public accountants.

The State Board of Public Accountancy is set to expire June 30, 2001 under AS 08.03.010, Termination of State Boards and Commissions. If the Legislature does not act to extend the Board, it would have one year, until June 30, 2002 to administratively conclude its affairs. Senate Bill 10 will extend the Board for another four years.
