The committee will consist of eight legislators, with four members from the House of Representatives and four from the Senate, including two members from the minority party in each chamber.

The appointments to the committee must be made within 30 days of the bill's effective date, and the committee is limited to three meetings, with a completion deadline of September 30, 2026.

The bill also includes an appropriation of $23,000 from the general fund to support the committee's activities during the biennium ending June 30, 2027. Additionally, it contains provisions for contingent voidness, stating that if the bill does not include an appropriation or if the appropriation is vetoed, the act will be void. The effective date of the act is set for July 1, 2025, and it will terminate on December 31, 2026.
