(2) That the administrative expenses of a nonprofit corporation receiving State funds do not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the total budget or receipts for the nonprofit corporation.
(3) Possible sanctions for nonprofits receiving State funds that fail to meet the criteria established by the State.
(4) Any other matters the Committee deems appropriate.
SECTION 2. The Speaker of the House of Representatives shall appoint a cochair for the Committee. The Committee may contract for consultant services as provided by G.S. 120‑32.02.

Clerical staff shall be furnished to the Committee through the offices of the Speaker of the House of Representatives. The Committee may meet in the Legislative Building or Legislative Office Building upon the approval of the Legislative Services Commission. The Committee, while in discharge of official duties, may exercise all the powers provided under the provisions of G.S. 120‑19 and G.S. 120‑19.1 through G.S. 120‑19.4, including the power to request all officers, agents, agencies, and departments of the State to provide any information, data, or documents within their possession, ascertainable from the records, or otherwise available to them, and the power to subpoena witnesses. Members of the Committee shall receive per diem, subsistence, and travel allowances at the rate established in G.S. 120‑3.1 or G.S. 138‑5, as appropriate. Vacancies shall be filled by the appointing authority.
