. It is further the intent of the Legislature that there shall
be a single line of responsibility with regard to the education of
all handicapped children as required by Public Law 94-142. The
Superintendent of Public Instruction shall be responsible for
supervising education and related services for handicapped children
specifically required pursuant to the federal requirements under the
Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1975, Public Law
94-142. Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to relieve another
state agency from an otherwise valid obligation to provide or pay
for services to a handicapped child. Furthermore, nothing in this
chapter shall be interpreted so as to allow the Superintendent of
Public Instruction to prescribe health care services.
