(a)The clerk of either house may employ such number of qualified persons as are necessary to make a record of the proceedings in the Senate and the House of Representatives and to transcribe the same without unnecessary delay. A copy of such record of each day's proceedings shall be filed in the State Library not later than two days after the transcript has been completed and shall be available to the public.

(b)The clerks of the Senate and House shall, during sessions of the General Assembly, publish at such times during the session, as may be determined by said clerks, a legislative record index which shall report the status of each bill and resolution pending in or acted upon by the General Assembly. Said clerks shall make not more than twenty-five printed copies of the legislative record index and shall make the legislative record index available electronically to representatives of the press, the State Library, the Governor, the Secretary of the State, the Attorney General and such other persons as the speaker of the House or the president of the Senate may designate.
