This bill establishes a new commission to study the legislative bill enrollment process by amending RSA 14 to include a new section, 14:8-a. The commission will consist of various members, including three representatives from the House, two from the Senate, the Senate clerk, the House clerk, the Secretary of State or their designee, and the Director of the Office of Legislative Services or their designee. The commission is tasked with examining the current procedures for handling bills from enrollment to the governor's desk and identifying potential improvements. Legislative members will receive mileage reimbursement for their participation, and the commission is required to report its findings and recommendations by November 1, 2026.

Additionally, the bill includes a provision for the prospective repeal of the newly established section 14:8-a, which will take effect on November 30, 2026.
