This page is about a bill. That means that it's not the law yet, but some people want it to be the law. It could change quickly, and some of the information is just a draft.
This part of the bill says that when the board looks into something or checks if a new law follows the rules, they can only do it by reading papers. They can't have a meeting where people come to talk about it. This means the board will make decisions based on written information, not by listening to people speak.

The board may only carry out an inquiry, or consider a consistency accountability statement for a Bill, on the papers (and must not hold a hearing).
