Herd, J.:

After giving the matter due consideration we hold, by a unanimous court, Chapter 153 of the 1979 Session Laws of Kansas, House Bill 2020, to be constitutional in toto, reversing in part and affirming in part the judgment of the trial court.

This abbreviated opinion announcing the decision of the court will be supplemented by a formal opinion to be filed when it is prepared.
