All we're trying to say--I think this is what this phrase says--is that only the clerk of the committee is authorized to distribute any documents to the members of the committee.

It means the clerk is going to distribute the documents, including motions, and advise witnesses that their documents should be bilingual. Why are we getting hung up on this?
Isn't that what we're trying to say, Mr. Clerk?
