In addition to the information made available by the Legislative Information System under Section 5.09, the System may make the computer systems under its jurisdiction available for use by private persons or governmental entities or agencies, other than those legislative users specified in Section 5.06, if:
(a) such availability in no way reduces the quality of service available to and required under this Act for legislative users;(b) the System, by resolution adopts rules and conditions regarding the offering of such services and specifies the charges to be made therefor. These charges may be based on usage of the services; and(c) the System collects the appropriate charges for the services rendered. Those amounts shall be deposited in the General Assembly Computer Equipment Revolving Fund, a special fund which is hereby created in the State treasury. Monies in the Fund shall be appropriated to the Joint Committee on Legislative Support Services for the purchase of computer equipment for the General Assembly and for related expenses and for other operational purposes of the General Assembly.
