The chair said the amendment deadline had passed with no amendments filed and invited the sponsor forward. A committee member moved that the bill be reported out of the committee with individual recommendations and attached fiscal notes; a brief objection was raised and then withdrawn, after which clerks completed paperwork and the chair authorized legislative legal staff to make technical and conforming changes.
No roll‑call tally with member votes was recorded in the transcript of the April 1 session; the committee recorded the procedural outcome as a report out with individual recommendations and attached fiscal notes.
