18. All bills and resolutions passed or adopted by and
reported from the House of Delegates shall be read by their titles
and referred to the appropriate committee unless the Senate directs
otherwise by a vote of a majority of the members present. They
shall then be proceeded with in the same manner as Senate bills or
resolutions. All bills and joint resolutions introduced shall be
read by their titles and referred to the appropriate committee
without printing and shall be treated in committee as resolutions
of inquiry. If the committee reports a bill or resolution
different, either by amendment or substitution, from the one
introduced, it shall be received and treated by the Senate as the
original bill or resolution. All Senate bills and joint
resolutions reported by a committee shall be printed, with the
proposed committee amendments printed on the foot thereof, and
shall be then read a first time, unless in any of the aforesaid
cases the Senate directs otherwise by a vote of a majority of the
members present.
