The bill amends sections 81-1802, 81-1803, and 81-1804 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, specifically regarding the membership and terms of the Crime Victim's Reparations Committee. The committee will now consist of five members from the commission and five public members appointed by the Governor, with specific representation requirements. These public members must include individuals from charitable organizations, businesses, and those with relevant experience in victim support, including at least one victim of crime. The bill also establishes a timeline for the appointment of these public members and specifies that their terms will begin on October 1.

Additionally, the bill modifies the term lengths for committee members, introducing a two-year term for certain initial appointees, after which all members will serve four-year terms. It clarifies the process for filling vacancies and ensures that members whose terms have expired will continue to serve until their successors are appointed. The original sections of the law being amended are repealed, streamlining the legal framework governing the committee.
