This bill relates to the Iowa drug policy coordinator and the Iowa drug policy advisory council.

The bill increases the number of members of the Iowa drug policy advisory council from to 17. The additional members, to be appointed by the governor, are the state public defender or the state public defender’s designee, and a police chief.
