The Law Revision Counsel may hire staff needed to run the Office well. The Speaker must approve these hires, based only on job fitness, not politics. One employee becomes Deputy Law Revision Counsel and can take over some duties.

(1) With the Speaker's approval — or under policies the Speaker approves — the Law Revision Counsel may hire employees needed to run the Office promptly and efficiently. Hiring must ignore political affiliation and depend only on fitness for the job. The Law Revision Counsel may fire anyone hired this way, again with the Speaker's approval or under Speaker-approved policies. (2)(A) One of these employees is named Deputy Law Revision Counsel. If the Law Revision Counsel is absent, disabled, or the position is empty, the Deputy takes over the Law Revision Counsel's duties. (2)(B) The Law Revision Counsel may hand off some of their own duties to the Deputy and to other employees, whenever the Law Revision Counsel decides that is necessary or appropriate.
