OFFICES OF THE LEGISLATIVE RESEARCH COMMITTEE

A concurrent resolution urging the state board of administration to provide adequate quarters for the offices of the legislative research committee at such time as additional space becomes available in the capitol building.

WHEREAS, the offices of the legislative research committee are so limited in size that the staff of such committee is extremely handicapped in performing their duties; and

WHEREAS, it is necessary that quarters be of sufficient size to permit a temporary expansion of the staff of the legislative research committee during periods prior to and during each legislative session in order to perform their duties for the Legislative Assembly; and

WHEREAS, it is essential that the offices of the legislative research committee be located upon the ground or first floor of the state capitol building in order to be reasonably accessible to members of the Legislative Assembly;

Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved by the House of Representatives of the State of North Dakota, the Senate Concurring Therein:

That the state board of administration is hereby urged and directed to make every effort to provide adequate office space upon the ground or first floor of the state capitol building for the offices of the legislative research committee when space becomes available through the transfer of other state offices to quarters outside the present state capitol building; and, in the event the office of the motor vehicle registrar should be moved to other quarters that the board of administration give preference to the legislative research committee in assigning to the committee a portion of the office space vacated by the office of the motor vehicle registrar, and, to take such action as may be necessary in altering or modifying any office space that may be assigned in order to make it suitable to meet the needs of the committee.
