|A. 1. Except as otherwise provided in this subsection, any retirement bill having a fiscal impact may be introduced according to the applicable deadlines established by the House of Representatives or Senate only in any odd-numbered year during the regular session. Any such retirement bill may be passed by the Legislature only during an even-numbered year of the regular session. Any retirement bill determined by the Legislative Actuary in an even-numbered year to be a fiscal retirement bill may be introduced in an even-numbered year, but shall not be considered by the Legislature. |2. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 1 of this subsection, any retirement bill having a fiscal impact may be introduced, considered and enacted in any year of a regular session of the Legislature if such retirement bill is introduced solely for the purpose of an unforeseen or emergency situation that needs to be addressed immediately. Such retirement bill shall only be considered if three-fourths (3/4) of the membership of each House votes to allow the retirement bill to be considered. Such retirement bill shall be subject to an actuarial investigation by the Legislature Actuary in the year the bill is introduced and considered and shall require concurrent funding, if applicable.B. When a retirement bill having a fiscal impact is introduced, it shall be assigned to the respective Senate or House of Representatives standing committee or subcommittee that is primarily responsible for the consideration of retirement legislation. If a majority of the total membership of such committee is opposed to the bill on its merits, no actuarial investigation provided for in Section 3109 of this title shall be necessary, and the bill shall not be reported out by the committee and shall not be adopted or considered by the House of Representatives or the Senate. If a majority of the committee wishes to consider the bill further and votes in favor of an actuarial investigation of the bill, an actuarial investigation shall be required as provided in Section 3109 of this title. Except as otherwise provided by subsection C of this section, no retirement bill having a fiscal impact may be reported out of the committee to which it is assigned or may be considered or adopted by the House of Representatives or the Senate unless an actuarial investigation of the bill is made.C. The committee to which a retirement bill having a fiscal impact is assigned following its introduction may amend the bill to become a nonfiscal retirement bill. If the bill is so amended, an exact copy of the amended version shall be submitted by the chair of the committee to the Legislative Actuary. If the Legislative Actuary issues a written certification that the committee amendment has converted the status of the bill to a nonfiscal retirement bill, the bill shall be a nonfiscal retirement bill for all purposes under the provisions of this act as of the date of the certification of the Legislative Actuary. Only the committee to which a retirement bill having a fiscal impact is originally assigned following its introduction may convert the bill to a nonfiscal retirement bill as authorized in this subsection.Added by Laws 2006, c. 292, § 7, eff.
