The Ohio House Insurance Committee opened, established a quorum and approved minutes from the prior meeting Oct. 12. The committee reappointed Ranking Member Tims to serve as committee secretary by unanimous consent.
Representative Daniels moved to accept amendment L1360706-3 as a substitute to House Bill 105; the committee accepted the substitute as a working document without recorded objection. Chairman Lambton noted the substitute had been distributed to members prior to the meeting and was available on committee iPads.
Why it matters: Committee housekeeping determines which versions of bills members use in debate and ensures an identified point of contact for committee records. Acceptance of a substitute as the working document allows committee members to review and refer to the updated draft in subsequent hearings.
Outcome: Minutes were approved; Ranking Member Tims was reappointed as committee secretary; the substitute amendment to HB 105 was accepted as the working bill. No roll‑call votes were recorded for these actions in the transcript.
Ending: Committee proceeded to the second hearing of House Bill 276 and concluded the session after proponent testimony.
