Resolution Concerning Publication Of Legislative Bulletin, Printing Of Bills And Expenses.
The resolution empowers the joint committee on legislative management to cover the costs associated with printing bills for the 2016 session of the General Assembly as well as any other necessary expenses. By formalizing the process of information publication, it seeks to streamline operations and ensure that all members of the General Assembly are informed about legislative activities, thereby fostering better participation in the legislative process.
Senate Joint Resolution No. 3, introduced in February 2016, is a resolution concerning the publication of the Legislative Bulletin, the printing of bills, and related expenses. The resolution mandates that the clerks of the House and Senate publish notices regarding caucuses, committee hearings, meetings, and other significant announcements for members of the General Assembly. This measure aims to ensure communication and information dissemination among legislators for enhanced transparency and engagement.
While the bill primarily addresses procedural aspects of legislative operations, it reflects ongoing discussions on how best to manage resources and publication methods within the government. There may be some budgetary considerations given that the joint committee on legislative management is authorized to allocate funds for printing and related expenses, but no specific points of contention were noted within the discussions surrounding this resolution.
