Summary

The rules committee approved 11 study committees from roughly 38–40 requests and placed a group of House resolutions and the approved SB148 substitute on the supplemental calendar for further consideration.

Members of the rules committee voted to approve 11 study committees from a larger pool of about 38 to 40 requests and to place a set of House resolutions on the committee’s supplemental calendar, the panel recorded during its meeting (date not specified).

The committee chair presented 11 rule-substitute study proposals and asked that they be approved as a group. A motion to accept the 11 by one vote was made, seconded and approved by voice vote; no roll-call tally appears in the provided transcript excerpt.

The committee then moved to set a supplemental calendar and read a list of House resolutions to be placed there: House Resolution 40 (by substitute), House Resolution 72 (by substitute), House Resolution 304 (by substitute), House Resolution 429 (by substitute), House Resolution 557 (by substitute), House Resolution 558 (by substitute), House Resolution 611 (by rule substitute), House Resolution 711 (by substitute), House Resolution 847 (by substitute), House Resolution 753 (by substitute) and House Resolution 885 (by substitute), and House Resolution 887.

Committee members made and seconded a motion to place those items on the supplemental calendar; the motion passed by voice vote. The committee’s report also placed the previously approved Senate Bill 148 rules substitute (LC610264S) on the supplemental calendar.

During the discussion, the presenter noted why the items were labeled rule substitutes: the numeric leave-day provisions in several items were changed from five days to three days in the rule-substitute language. The transcript notes approximately 38–40 requests for study committees overall and that the eleven were before the committee for recommendation.

Chairman Blackman briefly described House Resolution 887 as a study committee item that would review current public-stores statutory language; details and the targeted statute were not specified in the transcript excerpt.

All motions in the excerpt were approved by voice vote; no roll-call vote tallies or named movers/seconders were recorded in the provided portion of the transcript.
