AI Summary

This bill repeals several sections of Mississippi law that established the position of Coordinator of Mental Health Accessibility within the Department of Finance and Administration (DFA), a state agency responsible for managing state finances and administrative functions. The repealed sections outlined how this coordinator would be appointed, their required qualifications, how their expenses and salary would be handled, and defined their powers, duties, and responsibilities, including requiring other state agencies to cooperate with them. Essentially, this bill eliminates the dedicated role of a Mental Health Accessibility Coordinator within the DFA.
