Efficient, Effective and Accountable Government

The Joint Legislative Systems Committee was created by the 49th Legislature in 1986. It oversees information technology in the Legislature and enforces the policies, procedures, and standards established by the Committee. It functions primarily through the activities of its operating arm, the Legislative Service Center (LSC), which provides a full range of information technology services to the House, Senate, and legislative subagencies. LSC's services include computing and telecommunication operations, equipment maintenance and repair, applications support, customer training, and help desk support. LSC also provides selected services to certain non-legislative customers. In addition, LSC provides support for electronic access to legislative information.
