A bill in North Dakota, which sought to ban the use of non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) for data centers and other industrial projects, has been recommended "do-not-pass" by the Joint Policy Committee.

The committee's decision came during the first day of the Legislature's special session on Wednesday. The proposed legislation was introduced by Rep. Jonathan Warrey, R-Casselton, and its rejection by the committee marks a significant legislative setback for the initiative.
