     The Legislative Compensation Commission has the following duties:
     (1) It shall study and formulate recommendations concerning the salary levels for Utah state legislators.

Comparisons with salaries of other similar state legislators and other such factors should be considered in developing the recommendations. This study does not include a review of the appropriate expense level of legislators.
     (2) The commission shall submit to each member of the Legislature, by January 2nd of each even-numbered year, recommendations concerning changes, if any, which should be made in the salary plan and its administration for state legislators. This recommendation shall include a recitation of the provisions of Section 36-2-3.
