Included in the above appropriations for house and senate expenses are funds for
a legislative business per diem allowance, meals and other usual and customary expenses
associated with legislative affairs. Except as provided below, this allowance is
to be paid to each member of the general assembly for every day, including Sundays,
during which the general assembly is convened in regular or special session, commencing
with the day the session is officially convened and concluding with the day the session
is adjourned sine die. However, after five (5) consecutive days of recess, the legislative
business per diem allowance is to be made on an individual voucher basis until the
recess concludes.
Members of the general assembly are entitled, when authorized by the speaker of the
house or the president pro tempore of the senate, to the legislative business per
diem allowance for each and every day engaged in official business.
The legislative business per diem allowance that each member of the general assembly
is entitled to receive equals the maximum daily amount allowable to employees of
the executive branch of the federal government for subsistence expenses while away
from home in travel status in the Indianapolis area. The legislative business per
diem changes each time there is a change in that maximum daily amount.
In addition to the legislative business per diem allowance, each member of the general
assembly shall receive the mileage allowance in an amount equal to the standard mileage
rates for personally owned transportation equipment established by the federal Internal
Revenue Service for each mile necessarily traveled from the member's usual place
of residence to the state capitol. However, if the member traveled by a means other
than by motor vehicle, and the member's usual place of residence is more than one
hundred (100) miles from the state capitol, the member is entitled to reimbursement
in an amount equal to the lowest air travel cost incurred in traveling from the usual
place of residence to the state capitol. During the period the general assembly is
convened in regular or special session, the mileage allowance shall be limited to
one (1) round trip each week per member.
Any member of the general assembly who is appointed, either by the governor, speaker
of the house, president or president pro tempore of the senate, house or senate
minority floor leader, or Indiana legislative council to serve on any research,
study, or survey committee or commission, or who attends any meetings authorized
or convened under the auspices of the Indiana legislative council, including pre-session
conferences and federal-state relations conferences, is entitled, when authorized
by the legislative council, to receive the legislative business per diem allowance
for each day in actual attendance and is also entitled to a mileage allowance, at the
rate specified above, for each mile necessarily traveled from the member's usual
place of residence to the state capitol, or other in-state site of the committee,
commission, or conference. The per diem allowance and the mileage allowance permitted
under this paragraph shall be paid from the legislative council appropriation for
legislator and lay member travel unless the member is attending an out-of-state meeting,
as authorized by the speaker of the house of representatives or the president pro
tempore of the senate, in which case the member is entitled to receive:
(1) the legislative business per diem allowance for each day the member is engaged
in approved out-of-state travel; and
(2) reimbursement for traveling expenses actually incurred in connection with the
member's duties, as provided in the state travel policies and procedures established
by the legislative council.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this or any other statute, the legislative council
may adopt, by resolution, travel policies and procedures that apply only to members
of the general assembly or to the staffs of the house of representatives, senate,
and legislative services agency, or both members and staffs. The legislative council
may apply these travel policies and procedures to lay members serving on research,
study, or survey committees or commissions that are under the jurisdiction of the
legislative council. Notwithstanding any other law, rule, or policy, the state travel
policies and procedures established by the Indiana department of administration
and approved by the budget agency do not apply to members of the general assembly,
to the staffs of the house of representatives, senate, or legislative services agency,
or to lay members serving on research, study, or survey committees or commissions
under the jurisdiction of the legislative council (if the legislative council applies
its travel policies and procedures to lay members under the authority of this SECTION),
except that, until the legislative council adopts travel policies and procedures,
the state travel policies and procedures established by the Indiana department
of administration and approved by the budget agency apply to members of the general
assembly, to the staffs of the house of representatives, senate, and legislative
services agency, and to lay members serving on research, study, or survey committees
or commissions under the jurisdiction of the legislative council. The executive
director of the legislative services agency is responsible for the administration
of travel policies and procedures adopted by the legislative council. The auditor
of state shall approve and process claims for reimbursement of travel related expenses
under this paragraph based upon the written affirmation of the speaker of the house
of representatives, the president pro tempore of the senate, or the executive director
of the legislative services agency that those claims comply with the travel policies
and procedures adopted by the legislative council. If the funds appropriated for
the house and senate expenses and legislative salaries are insufficient to pay all
the necessary expenses incurred, including the cost of printing the journals of the
house and senate, there is appropriated such further sums as may be necessary to
pay such expenses.
