(f) Following consideration of the evidence presented, if a complaint is not resolved and dismissed pursuant to this rule, the committee may determine, by a four-fifths vote, that the evidence substantiates the alleged facts such that probable cause exists that misconduct may have occurred. At such time, the committee shall notify the respondent, followed by the complainant, that the committee will proceed to a public hearing. The committee shall, within seventy-two hours following such notification, redact the names and other personal identifying information of third parties, when deemed appropriate, from copies of the complaint and response, including any evidence attached to each, redacted as necessary, and such renditions of the written complaint and response shall no longer be confidential but shall become public documents.

A reprimand shall carry no sanctions other than the reading of the reprimand into the Journal of the House of Representatives. Censure of a member may include conditions or restrictions placed upon the member, but may not have the effect of expulsion, such as terminating salary or benefits or denying a legislative district representation via floor votes. The committee recommendation must be approved by a four-fifths vote of the committee, except in the case of a recommendation for expulsion, which must be approved by a unanimous vote of the committee.
