 Prayer by Chaplain Washington:

      Heavenly Father,

       You said in Proverbs 11:11, that with the blessing of decent people a city is raised
      up, but by the words of deceitful people, it is torn down. Three verses later, in verse
      14, You said that a city without wise leaders will end up in ruin, while a city with
      many wise leaders will be kept safe.

       Lord, on this April Fool's Day, when some of us turn to a little lighthearted levity,
      on a more serious note, please deliver us from the heaviness of deceit and ruin. Make
      the leaders of our state and country wise that You may keep the people safe.

       I come in the Name of Jesus the Christ. Amen.

EXPLANATIONS OF VOTE


 Mr. Speaker: I support this legislation because it preserves the sound policies adopted
overwhelmingly in 1996 based on months of work by the Strategic Planning Committee and
House Select Telecommunications Committee on which I served. Our policies have been
affirmed by the Supreme Court and deserve a chance to work. I'm especially glad my
colleagues on the Utilities Committee rejected repeated requests by the KCC Staff to un-
dermine our 1996 policies through various proposals for earnings audits and the elimination
of revenue neutral provisions that safeguard consumers and their providers from windfalls
or shortfalls as historic regulatory subsidies are ended. I vote yes on H. Sub. for SB
212.--Dixie Toelkes

 Mr. Speaker: While H. Sub. for SB 212 may reduce some of the tax increases the
legislature and the KCC have placed on cellular, residential and small business, it is still not
enough. Competition was supposed to reduce telephone costs but what we have seen is
increased costs to many consumers and greater profits to the utility companies. The legis-
lature and the KCC should be given the following message from their constituents--reduce
our telephone costs to the pre-1996 level. Therefore I vote no on H. Sub. for SB 212 and
will continue to push for reduced telephone charges.--Henry M. Helgerson, Cliff
Franklin

(a) No person shall perform or induce an abortion when the fetus is viable unless such
person is a physician and has a documented referral from another physician not legally or
financially associated affiliated with the physician performing or inducing the abortion and
both physicians determine that: (1) The abortion is necessary to preserve the life of the
pregnant woman; or (2) the fetus is affected by a severe or life-threatening deformity or
abnormality a continuation of the pregnancy will cause a substantial and irreversible im-
pairment of a major bodily function of the pregnant woman.

    (b) (1) Except in the case of a medical emergency, prior to performing an abortion upon
a woman, the physician shall determine the gestational age of the fetus by applying the
factors usually applied by a physician engaged in obstetrical, perinatal or neonatal practice
under the same or similar circumstances. If the physician determines the gestational age is
less than 20 weeks, the physician shall document as part of the medical records of the woman
the basis for the determination.

    (2) If the physician determines the gestational age of the fetus is 20 or more weeks, prior
to performing an abortion upon the woman the physician shall determine if the unborn child
is viable by using and exercising that degree of care, skill and proficiency commonly exercised
by the ordinary skillful, careful and prudent physician engaged in obstetrical, perinatal or
neonatal practice under the same or similar conditions. In making this determination of
viability, the physician shall perform or cause to be performed such medical examinations
and tests as are necessary to make a finding of the gestational age, weight and lung maturity
of the unborn child and shall enter such findings and determinations of viability in the
medical record of the woman.

    (3) If the physician determines the gestational age of a fetus is 20 or more weeks, deter-
mines that the fetus is not viable and performs an abortion on the mother, the physician
shall report such determinations and the reasons for such determinations in writing to the
medical care facility in which the abortion is performed for inclusion in the report of the
medical care facility to the secretary of health and environment under K.S.A. 65-445 and
amendments thereto or if the abortion is not performed in a medical care facility, the phy-
sician shall report such determinations and the reasons for such determinations in writing
to the secretary of health and environment as part of the written report made by the phy-
sician to the secretary of health and environment under K.S.A. 65-445 and amendments
thereto.

    (4) If the physician who is to perform the abortion determines the gestational age of a
fetus is 20 or more weeks, determines that the fetus is viable, both physicians under subsec-
tion (a) determine in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) that an abortion is
necessary to preserve the life of the pregnant woman or that a continuation of the pregnancy
will cause a substantial and irreversible impairment of a major bodily function of the preg-
nant woman and the physician performs an abortion on the woman, the physician who
performs the abortion shall report such determinations, the reasons for such determinations
and the basis for the determination that an abortion is necessary to preserve the life of the
pregnant woman or that a continuation of the pregnancy will cause a substantial and irre-
versible impairment of a major bodily function of the pregnant woman in writing to the
medical care facility in which the abortion is performed for inclusion in the report of the
medical care facility to the secretary of health and environment under K.S.A. 65-445 and
amendments thereto or if the abortion is not performed in a medical care facility, the phy-
sician who performs the abortion shall report such determinations, the reasons for such
determinations and the basis for the determination that an abortion is necessary to preserve
the life of the pregnant woman or that a continuation of the pregnancy will cause a sub-
stantial and irreversible impairment of a major bodily function of the pregnant woman in
writing to the secretary of health and environment as part of the written report made by
the physician to the secretary of health and environment under K.S.A. 65-445 and amend-
ments thereto.

    (5) The physician shall retain the medical records required to be kept under paragraphs
(1) and (2) of this subsection (b) for not less than three years and shall retain a copy of the
written reports required under paragraphs (3) and (4) of this subsection (b) for not less than

section for a conspiracy to violate this section pursuant to K.S.A. 21-3302, and amendments
thereto.

standing any provision of this section, a person shall not perform an abortion that is pro-
hibited by law.

    (e) As used in this section, ``viable'' means that stage of fetal development when, in the
judgment of the physician based upon the particular facts of the case before the physician
and in light of the most advanced medical technology and information available to the phy-
sician, there is a reasonable likelihood of sustained survival of the unborn child outside the
body of the mother, with or without artificial support.

    (f) If any provision of this section is held to be invalid or unconstitutional, it shall be
conclusively presumed that the legislature would have enacted the remainder of this section
without such invalid or unconstitutional provision.

    (b) Violation of this section is a class A person misdemeanor.

    (g) Upon conviction of a violation of this section, a person shall be guilty of a severity

financially affiliated with the physician performing or inducing the abortion and both phy-
sicians determine that the abortion is necessary to preserve the life of the pregnant woman.

    (b) As used in this section, partial birth abortion means an abortion in which the fetus
is partially delivered vaginally and then intentionally killed before completing the delivery.

    (c) If a physician determines in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) that an
abortion is necessary to preserve the life of the pregnant woman and performs an abortion
on the woman, the physician shall report such determination and the reasons for such
determination in writing to the medical care facility in which the abortion is performed for
inclusion in the report of the medical care facility to the secretary of health and environment
under K.S.A. 65-445 and amendments thereto or if the abortion is not performed in a
medical care facility, the physician shall report the reasons for such determination in writing
to the secretary of health and environment as part of the written report made by the phy-
sician to the secretary of health and environment under K.S.A. 65-445 and amendments
thereto. The physician shall retain a copy of the written reports required under this sub-
section for not less than five years.

section for a conspiracy to violate this section pursuant to K.S.A. 21-3302, and amendments
thereto.

standing any provision of this section, a person shall not perform an abortion that is prohib-
ited by law.

    (f) Upon a first conviction of a violation of this section, a person shall be guilty of a class
A person misdemeanor. Upon a second or subsequent conviction of a violation of this sec-
tion, a person shall be guilty of a severity level 10, person felony.

    Sec. 3. K.S.A. 1997 Supp. 65-6712 is hereby amended to read as follows: 65-6712. Any
physician who intentionally, knowingly or recklessly fails to provide informed consent pur-
suant to the woman's-right-to-know act, whether or not an abortion is actually performed
on the woman, is guilty of unprofessional conduct as defined in K.S.A. 65-2837 and amend-
ments thereto.

    Sec. 4. K.S.A. 1997 Supp. 65-445 is hereby amended to read as follows: 65-445. (a)

the secretary. Every person licensed to practice medicine and surgery shall keep a record
of all pregnancies which are lawfully terminated by such person in a location other than a
medical care facility and shall annually submit a written report thereon to the secretary of
health and environment in the manner and form prescribed by the secretary.

    (b) Each report required by this section shall include the number of pregnancies ter-
minated during the period of time covered by the report, the type of medical facility in
which the pregnancy was terminated, information required to be reported under K.S.A.
65-6703 and amendments thereto if applicable to the pregnancy terminated, information

    (c) Information obtained by the secretary of health and environment under this section
shall be confidential and shall not be disclosed in a manner that would reveal the identity
of any person licensed to practice medicine and surgery who submits a report to the secretary
under this section or the identity of any medical care facility which submits a report to the
secretary under this section. Information obtained by the secretary under this section may
be used only for statistical purposes, except that no information may be released which
would identify any county or other area of this state in which the termination of the preg-
nancy occurred. A violation of this subsection (c) is a class A nonperson misdemeanor.

    (d) In addition to such criminal penalty under subsection (c), any person licensed to
practice medicine and surgery or medical care facility whose identity is revealed in violation
of this section may bring a civil action against the responsible person or persons for any
damages to the person licensed to practice medicine and surgery or medical care facility
caused by such violation.
