with the
 state, monitor state contracting with minority firms, evaluate the performance
and progress of
 the state in the area of minority contracting, prepare reports for the Governor,
conduct hearings
 on issues related to minority business contracting, and generally promote
the positive benefits
 that minority-owned businesses provide to the state. The committee is composed
of 15 members
- 1 from the Governor's staff, 9 who represent the diversity of minority-owned
commercial
businesses in the state and who demonstrate an ability to do business with
the state, and 5 from
minority-business associations.
