  1- 1  To amend Code Section 20-2-162 of the Official Code of
  1- 2  Georgia Annotated, relating to midterm adjustments under the
  1- 3  "Quality Basic Education Act," so as to provide for midterm
  1- 4  adjustments relative to the program adjustment amount for

  1- 7  laws; and for other purposes.

  1- 8       BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF GEORGIA:

                         SECTION 1.

  1- 9  Code Section 20-2-162 of the Official Code of Georgia
  1-10  Annotated, relating to midterm adjustments under the

  1-12  end thereof a new subsection (d) to read as follows:

  1-13    "(d) A midterm adjustment shall be made in the program
  1-14    adjustment amount for training and experience authorized
  1-15    pursuant to subsection (d) of Code Section 20-2-161.  The
  1-16    adjusted amount shall be based on all certificated
  1-17    professional personnel who were employed by the local
  1-18    school system as of the month of June of the fiscal year
  1-19    immediately preceding the fiscal year in which grants
  1-20    authorized by this Code section are distributed.  Such
  1-21    adjustment shall be calculated to phase in full funding of
  1-22    the above provision over a period of four years.  For FY
  1-23    1997, the dollar value of training and experience increase
  1-24    for FY 1996 over FY 1995 shall be multiplied by .25; for
  1-25    FY 1998 the dollar value of training and experience
  1-26    increase for FY 1997 over FY 1996 shall be multiplied by
  1-27    .50; for FY 1999 the dollar value of training and
  1-28    experience increase for FY 1998 over FY 1997 shall be
  1-29    multiplied by .75; and every year thereafter by 1.0."

                         SECTION 2.

  1-30  This Act shall become effective on July 1, 1996.
