NRS 218D.110 Priority and order of drafting of requests from Legislative Department.

1. Upon request, within the limits established pursuant to NRS 218D.050 to 218D.215, inclusive, or by the Legislature by concurrent resolution, the Legislative Counsel shall assist any Legislator in the preparation of bills and resolutions, drafting them in proper form, and furnishing the Legislator the fullest information upon all matters within the scope of the Legislative Counsel's duties.

2. The Legislative Counsel shall, insofar as is possible, act upon all Legislators' requests for legislative measures in the order in which they are received.

3. To assure the greatest possible equity in the handling of requests, drafting must proceed as follows:

(a) If a Legislator so desires, the Legislator may designate a different priority for his or her bills and resolutions which the Legislative Counsel shall observe, insofar as is possible.

(b) The drafting of requests for legislative measures from chairs or members of standing committees or special committees, on behalf of those committees, must not, except where urgency is recognized, take precedence over the priority established or designated for individual Legislators' bills and resolutions.
