No bill requiring a report under s. 601.423 may receive a hearing or be voted on by either house or by a standing committee and no amendment requiring a report under s. 601.423 may be adopted by either house or recommended by a standing committee before the report or statement on the bill or amendment is distributed under this subdivision.
