61.070 Eligibility of General Assembly member or candidate as administrative

board or commission member.

A person may serve as a member of the General Assembly or may be a candidate for

election to the General Assembly and at the same time be a member of a state

administrative board or commission. Such membership shall not constitute a conflict of

interest. Any member of the General Assembly who serves on a state administrative

board or commission shall receive no compensation for serving on such board or

commission other than his expenses, unless it is required by law that the membership of

the board or commission include a member of the General Assembly, in which case he

shall receive the same compensation in the same manner as any other member of the

board or commission.
