At that time the temporary special committee will cease to exist.
The co-chairs of the committee will be Reps. David Prosser and Peter Bock. Other members of the committee are: Reps. Jensen, Vrakas, Lehman, Hubler, Coggs and Ziegelbauer.
The creation of this committee does not carry with it authority to hire additional staff.
