The bill amends the composition and staffing requirements of the South Dakota-Ireland Trade Commission. Specifically, it outlines that the commission will consist of two members from the Senate and two from the House of Representatives, along with a representative from a private sector association focused on international trade, an officer from the Executive Branch, and two representatives from South Dakota private industry. Each member will serve a two-year term and can be reappointed indefinitely. In the event of a vacancy, the position will be filled in the same manner as the original appointment.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that the Executive Board of the Legislative Research Council will provide administrative services to the commission. It also establishes that the commission will select a chair from among the appointed legislators during its initial meeting and annually thereafter, with a requirement to meet at least quarterly at the chair's discretion.
