218A.900  Legislative findings and declaration; definitions.

      1.  The Legislature finds as a fact that the complexities of contemporary civilization and government require the Legislature, in the discharge of its constitutional function, to delegate separately to standing and special committees and to the Legislative Commission the finding of essential facts and the preliminary consideration of legislation, and that these subordinate bodies are, therefore, an integral part of the Legislature.

      2.  As used in NRS 218A.905, “Legislature” means the Legislature of the State of Nevada, either House thereof, any committee of either House or joint committee of the Legislature, or any committee or commission created by the Legislature to perform legislative functions at the direction of the Legislature.
