160 R.I. Code R. 160-RICR-00-00-1.5
Wherever practicable, all legislative agencies, committees and commissions will use the common services and facilities available to other state agencies. These services will include, but are not limited to: the public buildings utility, maintenance, custodial and janitorial services, payroll and data processing, the central mail room, central stores, telephone switchboard and motor pool.
Wherever such services are rendered on cost basis to state agencies, the same charges will apply to legislative agencies and be paid from each legislative appropriation account in the same manner as paid by all other state agencies. No services will be charged legislative agencies, however, that are not paid by all other agencies except when mutually agreed upon.
