Excerpt from Revenue Laws: Report to the 1991 General Assembly of North Carolina, 1992 Session At the direction of the 1991 General Assembly, the Legislative Research Commission has undertaken studies of numerous subjects. These studies were grouped into broad categories and each member of the Commission was given responsibility for one category of study. The Cochairs of the Legislative Research Commission under the authority of 120 and (c), appointed committees consisting of members of the General Assembly and the public to conduct the studies. Cochairs, one from each house of the General Assembly, were designated for each committee. The study of the revenue laws was authorized by Section of Chapter 754 of the 1991 Session Laws. That act states that the Commission may consider House Joint Resolution 7 in determining the nature, scope, and aspects of the study. House Joint Resolution 7, introduced by Representative Daniel T. Lilley in the 1991 Session, gives the Legislative Research Commission's study of the revenue laws a very broad scope, stating that the Commission may review the State's revenue laws to determine which laws need clarification, technical amendment, repeal, or other change to make the laws concise, intelligible, easy to administer, and equitable. The relevant portions of Chapter 754 and House Joint Resolution 7 are included in Appendix A. The Legislative Research Commission grouped this study in its Revenue and Financing area under the direction of Representative Marie W. Colton. The Committee is chaired by Senator Dennis J. Winner and Representative John R. Gamble, Jr. The full membership of the Committee and the staff assigned to the Committee are listed in Appendix B of this report.
