Book excerpt: While there is no express provision in the Kansas Constitution that prohibits the legislature from appointing its members to administrative boards or commissions, the separation of powers doctrine prohibits the legislature from usurping the powers of another governmental branch. In view of the case law history of this doctrine and the facts with which we have been presented, we cannot conclusively say that legislative membership on the emergency medical services board is unconstitutional under the separation of powers doctrine.
