The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on November 1, 2005 and November 10, 2005. The committee voted unanimously, 19–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 4, 2006 the House voted to pass it with changes. It was introduced on January 5, 2006 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 8, 2006.
