SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 8
(By Senators Snyder and Prezioso)

Amending Senate Rule No. 24, relating to amendments.
Resolved by the Senate:
That Senate Rule No. 24 be amended to read as follows:
24. A bill shall be amended only on second reading. Once an amendment has been given to the Clerk of the Senate all members of the Senate are permitted, by request of any member of the Senate, to review and copy the amendment. When a bill is being read for amendment, it shall be read section by section on the demand of any two members. When the amendments which may be moved shall be disposed of, the question shall be taken on ordering a Senate bill to be engrossed and ordered to third reading and on ordering a House bill to third reading. If a Senate bill should be ordered to its engrossment and third reading and amendments thereto have been made, the type from which the bill was originally printed shall be changed to conform to the amendments. The bill shall then be reprinted and shall be the engrossed bill. If no amendments are made, the bill as originally printed may be ordered to its third reading and shall become the engrossed bill. All Senate bills so ordered shall be jacketed, endorsed with their number, title, by whom introduced and if the bill is finally passed, the date of its passage and the signature of the Clerk. If a Senate bill should be passed by the House and returned to the Senate without amendments, or if amended, and the amendments should be agreed to, the bill shall be enrolled by the Clerk and delivered to the Joint Committee on Enrolled Bills. In the case of a House bill on second reading if the same be amended, the amendment or amendments shall be noted in full in typewriting on slips of paper and attached to the bill at the proper place by the Clerk before the bill is returned to the House and all amendments shall appear in the Senate Journal.
