House Resolution 4
(By Mr. Speaker, Mr. Kiss, and Delegate Staton)
"Amending the rules of the House of Delegates, relating to printed
and electronic copies of bills."
Resolved by the House of Delegates:
That Rule 104 of the rules of the House of Delegates be
amended to read as follows:
Bills--Printing and Availability to Members
104. No bill shall be put upon its second reading until the
same shall have been printed, or otherwise mechanically reproduced,
and shall have been made available to the members of the House in
the House Document Room, no later than 6:00 P.M. or the hour of
adjournment, whichever be later, on the day next preceding the day
upon which it is to be read a second time.
Upon receipt of the printed or reproduced bill, the Clerk
shall, forthwith, place copies of said bill on the desks of each
member and, if possible, in the bill books; however, the failure of
the Clerk to do so shall not be cause for delaying action on the
bill.
Bills, resolutions and other documents in electronic format
and available to the members on the Chamber Automation System shall
be in compliance with the provisions of this rule.
