KRS 194A.150: State officials as voting members of citizens' councils.

When federal programs require a particular citizens' council within or attached to the

cabinet to include state officials as voting members, the secretary shall, for the

specific purposes of those federal programs, be authorized to vote in those council

meetings and shall further be authorized to call upon either the secretary of the

Cabinet for Health and Family Services, the secretary of the Finance and

Administration Cabinet, the chief state school officer, the secretary of the Justice and

Public Safety Cabinet, the secretary of the Public Protection Cabinet, the secretary

of the Energy and Environment Cabinet, the secretary of the Education and Labor

Cabinet, the secretary of the Cabinet for Economic Development, the executive

director of the Council on Higher Education, or any combination of the above as may

be appropriate, to be voting members of expanded citizens' councils for the

purposes of these federal programs. The secretary shall exercise this prerogative

only when the federal programs specifically require that state officials be voting

members of the citizens' councils.
