1. There is established a state prison industries advisory board, consisting of seven members selected as prescribed by this subsection.
a. Five members shall be appointed by the governor for terms of four years beginning July 1 of the year of appointment. They shall be chosen as follows:
(1) One member shall represent agriculture and one member shall represent manufacturing, with particular reference to the roles of their constituencies as potential employers of former inmates of the state’s correctional institutions.
(2) One member shall represent labor organizations, membership in which may be helpful to former inmates of the state’s correctional institutions who seek to train for and obtain gainful employment.
(3) One member shall represent agencies, groups and individuals in this state which plan and maintain programs of vocational and technical education oriented to development of marketable skills.
(4) One member shall represent the financial industry and be familiar with accounting practices in private industry.
b. One member each shall be designated by and shall serve at the pleasure of the state director and the state board of parole, respectively.
c. Upon the resignation, death or removal of any member appointed under paragraph “a” of this subsection, the vacancy shall be filled by the governor for the balance of the unexpired term. In making the initial appointments under that paragraph, the governor shall designate two appointees to serve terms of two years and three to serve terms of four years from July 1, 1977.
2. Biennially, the industries board shall organize by election of a chairperson and a vice chairperson, as soon as reasonably possible after the new appointees have been named. Other meetings shall be held at the call of the chairperson or of any three members, as necessary to enable the industries board to discharge its duties. Board members shall be reimbursed for expenses actually and necessarily incurred in the discharge of their duties, and those members not state employees shall also be entitled to a per diem as specified in section 7E.6 for each day they are so engaged.
3. The state director shall provide such administrative and technical assistance as is necessary to enable the industries board to discharge its duties. The industries board shall be provided necessary office and meeting space at the seat of government.
