2011 Nevada Revised Statutes
Chapter 218D - Legislative Measures and Procedures
NRS 218D.115 - Requests from authorized nonlegislative requesters: Duties of Legislative Counsel; priority and order of drafting.
1. The Legislative Counsel shall assist authorized nonlegislative requesters in the drafting of the legislative measures which they are authorized to request pursuant to NRS 218D.175 to 218D.215, inclusive.
2. To ensure the greatest possible equity in the handling of such requests, drafting must proceed as follows:
(a) Requests from each agency or officer of the Executive Department or from a county, school district or city must, insofar as is possible, be acted upon in the order in which they are received, unless a different priority is designated by the requester.
(b) As soon as an agency or officer of the Executive Department has requested 10 legislative measures for a regular session, the Legislative Counsel may request the agency or officer to designate the priority for each succeeding request.
3. The priority designated pursuant to this section must guide the Legislative Counsel in acting upon the requests of the respective agencies and officers of the Executive Department and the counties, school districts and cities to ensure each agency and officer, and each county, school district and city, as nearly as is possible, an equal rank.
