§ 77-165 — Cumulative supplements to Kansas Statutes Annotated; number of copies printed; distribution and sale; sale price fixed by legislative coordinating council; proceeds credited to state general fund

(a) Such number of copies of the cumulative supplements for each volume of the Kansas Statutes Annotated, corresponding as nearly as possible in size and page with the current bound volumes, as is specified by the revisor of statutes, subject to available appropriations, shall be printed by the director of printing and delivered to the secretary of state. Each year, such number of sets of the general index paperbound volume or volumes as is specified by the revisor of statutes, subject to available appropriations, shall be printed by the director of printing and delivered to the secretary of state. For purposes of this section, the general index paperbound volume or volumes shall be considered supplements. The revisor of statutes, with the approval of the legislative coordinating council, may provide for printing and delivery of additional copies of supplements to volumes of the Kansas Statutes Annotated.
(b) The secretary of state shall distribute full sets of supplements, including the general index paperbound volume or volumes, as follows:
First, by delivering to all state officers, county officers and other departments and officers the same number of sets and in the same manner as provided by K.S.A. 77-138, and amendments thereto, for the distribution of volumes of the Kansas Statutes Annotated.
Second, by delivering a set to each returning member of the legislature at each regular session, upon request by such member of the legislature. The secretary of state shall send an email to each returning member of the legislature to such member's official legislative email account asking the member whether such member requests a set of supplements. If the secretary of state does not receive a response to any such email, the secretary of state shall attempt to contact such member at least two more times via such member's official legislative email account to determine whether the member requests a set of supplements.
Third, the balance of such supplements, including as a part thereof the general index paperbound volume or volumes, after such distribution, shall be kept by the secretary of state for sale. Supplements for individual volumes, except index volumes, shall be sold at the per volume price fixed therefor by the legislative coordinating council as provided for under this section. Complete sets of cumulative supplements, including the general index volume, shall be sold at the complete set price fixed therefor by the legislative coordinating council as provided for under this section.
(c) The secretary of state shall remit all moneys received from the sale of supplements under this section to the state treasurer in accordance with the provisions of K.S.A. 75-4215, and amendments thereto. Upon receipt of each such remittance, the state treasurer shall deposit the entire amount in the state treasury to the credit of the state general fund.
(d) The legislative coordinating council shall fix the per volume and complete set prices of the cumulative supplements for the Kansas Statutes Annotated sold, as provided for under this section, to recover the costs of printing and binding such supplements. The legislative coordinating council shall revise such prices from time to time for the purposes of covering and recovering such costs.
