This bill establishes a select committee tasked with investigating the New Hampshire Department of Education and the actions of the former commissioner concerning the financial crisis faced by School Administrative Unit 6. The committee will consist of two members from the Senate and three members from the House of Representatives, all appointed by their respective leaders. Members will receive mileage compensation for their duties. The committee's responsibilities include investigating the circumstances leading to the financial crisis, examining the actions of the Department of Education and the former commissioner, subpoenaing relevant witnesses and documents, holding hearings, and making recommendations to prevent similar future crises.

The committee is required to elect a chairperson and hold its first meeting within 30 days of the bill's effective date, which is upon passage. A quorum will consist of four members, and the committee must report its findings and recommendations by November 1, 2026, to various state officials and the state library. Funding for the committee's operations will be sourced from the legislative budget. The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new provisions to establish the committee and outline its functions and structure.
