The program must focus on the purpose, structure, funding, and operations of the various agencies, institutions, departments, divisions, and offices of state government. Agencies shall cooperate with the joint committee in making necessary presentations and arranging visitations to facilities. All programs must be scheduled on legislative days. All members of the General Assembly may participate in the orientation program.
