AI Summary
This bill amends several Utah code sections to clarify and update provisions related to legislative activities and oversight. It modifies rules concerning lobbyist conduct and investigations into harassment, shifting oversight from the Utah Senate and House to the Legislative Management Committee, and allows the lieutenant governor to impose fines or suspend licenses for serious violations. The bill also reorganizes the House and Senate Management Committees and establishes the Legislative Management Committee's role in overseeing branch-wide internal administrative matters for the Legislature, including personnel, compensation, and training for legislative staff, and clarifies its authority in litigation. Furthermore, it refines the powers and duties of the Office of Legislative Research and General Counsel, particularly regarding the maintenance and revision of the Utah Code and Constitution databases, and establishes a new section clarifying that summaries of legislation are not part of the enacted law and do not represent legislative intent. Finally, the bill makes changes to the composition and duties of the Capitol Preservation Board, including clarifying its rulemaking authority and its relationship with the Legislative Management Committee, and repeals several outdated sections related to legislative committees and oversight.
