 ||||              LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF IDAHO             ||||
Fifty-fourth Legislature                 Second Regular Session - 1998

                            HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION NO. 31

                                       BY STOICHEFF

 1                               A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
 2    PROPOSING A NEW JOINT RULE 21 TO THE JOINT RULES OF THE SENATE AND  THE  HOUSE
 3        OF REPRESENTATIVES.

 4    Be It Resolved by the Legislature of the State of Idaho:

 5        WHEREAS,  the  members of the Legislature believe that a new Joint Rule 21
 6    should be added to the Joint Rules of the Senate and the House of  Representa-
 7    tives regarding buck slips.
 8        NOW,  THEREFORE,  BE IT RESOLVED by the members of the Second Regular Ses-
 9    sion of the Fifty-fourth Idaho Legislature, the House of  Representatives  and
10    the  Senate  concurring  therein,  that  the Joint Rules of the Senate and the
11    House of Representatives be amended by the addition thereto  of  a  new  Joint
12    Rule 21 to read as follows:

13                                    JOINT RULE 21
14             Buck  Slips.--Buck  slips  may  be  used for committee action in
15        either house on the introduction of or recommendations  on  bills  or
16        resolutions,  but  only  in  instances  where  committee meetings are
17        impractical.  The objection to the use of a buck slip by one-half  or
18        more  of  the  committee  members  shall  preclude  its  use  in that
19        instance.  All committee members, who are not absent and excused from
20        attendance in the Senate or the House of Representatives, as the case
21        may be, on that day shall be required to sign their names  indicating
22        their aye or nay vote on the matter being considered.
