(a) The purpose of this part is to recognize the value of the many professionals who volunteer to serve on the boards, commissions, and councils established to regulate various professions in order to safeguard the public health, safety, welfare, environment, and the public trust of the citizens of the State of New Hampshire, by establishing the rates at which members of such boards, commissions, and councils will be compensated for attending meetings and conducting authorized board-related business, and will be partially reimbursed for expenses.
