to the state of Kansas, and when attending a meeting so authorized, 
members shall receive compensation and travel expenses and subsistence 
expenses or allowances as provided in K.S.A. 75-3212 for members of the 
legislature. Whenever under any provision of law, a member of the state 
board of education is authorized to attend an out-of-state meeting, or 
whenever the state board of education authorizes one of its members to 
attend an out-of-state meeting for participation in matters of educational 
interest to the state of Kansas such members, when attending a meeting so 
authorized, shall receive compensation and travel expenses and 
subsistence expenses as provided in K.S.A. 75-3212 for members of the 
legislature.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of K.S.A. 46-137a and 75-3212, 
and amendments thereto, when attending any such in-state or out-of-state 
meeting authorized in accordance with subsection (a), members of the 
state board of education shall receive compensation in an amount that 
corresponds to the daily rate of compensation for services rendered by 
members of the legislature while in session. For purposes of this section, 
such daily rate of compensation for members of the state board shall be 
determined as follows:
(1) Determine the base annual salary of members of the legislature 
established by the legislative compensation commission pursuant to K.S.A. 
46-3102, and amendments thereto, including any salary indexing 
adjustments made to such base annual salary, and multiply such amount 
by 0.6003; and
(2) divide the amount determined pursuant to paragraph (1) by 90.
