The bill establishes the Wyoming-Ireland Trade Commission, which aims to promote and facilitate business and economic activities between Wyoming and Ireland. The commission will consist of nine members appointed by various state leaders, including the governor and legislative leaders, with specific representation from higher education, the Irish-American community, and industries engaged in trade with Ireland. Members will serve staggered terms, with non-legislative members receiving reimbursement for expenses, while legislative members will receive salary and travel reimbursements as per existing laws.
Additionally, the bill amends the definition of "This act" to include the newly created sections pertaining to the Wyoming-Ireland Trade Commission. The commission is tasked with reporting its findings and recommendations annually to key state officials, ensuring ongoing communication about its activities and potential legislative proposals. The act will take effect immediately upon completion of the necessary legislative processes.
