AI Summary

This bill proposes to completely eliminate the position of Coordinator of Mental Health Accessibility within the Mississippi Department of Finance and Administration by repealing six specific sections of the Mississippi Code of 1972 (Sections 41-20-1, 41-20-3, 41-20-5, 41-20-7, 41-20-9, and 41-20-11). By repealing these sections, the bill will remove all legal provisions related to the creation, appointment, qualifications, responsibilities, and operational details of this specific position. The bill effectively means that the Coordinator role will no longer exist, and any associated powers, duties, inter-agency cooperation requirements, and related provisions will be nullified. The legislation is straightforward in its intent to completely remove this position from state government, and it is set to take effect immediately upon its passage, meaning the position would be eliminated as soon as the bill becomes law.
