What’s in it

This bill relates to the confirmation of certain persons appointed to fill vacancies by the governor or an appointing authority other than the governor. The bill allows a member of the senate to request that an appointee who is not otherwise subject to confirmation by the senate by law be subject to such confirmation. The request shall be signed by at least senators and submitted to the secretary of the senate within days of the appointment. The secretary of the senate shall inform the governor or appointing authority within two days of receiving such a request.

Read the full explanation

The request shall also include the reason why confirmation is sought and shall be printed in the journal of the senate. The appointee shall be considered to be a nominee to fill a vacancy occurring on the date the request is submitted. The appointee shall continue to serve in the appointed position as a temporary or interim appointee until the appointee is confirmed, withdrawn from consideration, or otherwise terminated from the position. The bill allows the senate to adopt rules to implement the bill. The bill removes provisions for mandatory senate confirmation of appointees to several boards and commissions. Such appointees would be subject to confirmation at the request of a member of the senate pursuant to the bill.

Changed since by amendment S-5043; see Amendments.
