10:04 AM -- Proposed 2015 legislative agenda
The Commission briefly outlined the process for legislation to be considered and approved as a uniform state law before moving on to the specific uniform state law draft proposals. In general, potential legislation starts out in a summary format which, depending on controversy, may be vetted for a couple of years or more before being assigned to a study committee to put together a draft proposal for consideration. At some point a draft will go through a first reading at the Uniform Law Commission's (ULC) national conference, discussed, and if changed, may require additional readings. ULC proposed legislation may go through three or four readings before it is voted on at a national conference. The Commission also announced that the two-year appointed terms for current Commissioners end in December and there will be some newly appointed members in January.
