Adds a new section extending the time in which the House of Representatives and the Senate of the 2017 Regular Session of the General Assembly are required to hold their elections for the Board of Governors from within 30 legislative days to within 45 legislative days after appointments to their education committees are complete. Removes language in proposed Section 4 which provided that the proposed changes to GS 116-6(a) in Section 1 of the act apply beginning with the election of members of the Board of Governors during the 2018 Regular Session, clarifying that those changes are effective when the act becomes law.
