HB 1912 -- MULTIPLE VERSIONS OF STATE STATUTES

COMMITTEE ACTION:  Voted "do pass" by the Special Committee on
General Laws by a vote of 14 to 0.

This bill combines and modifies the provisions of the Revised
Statutes of Missouri that have been enacted in more than one bill
so that there is only one version of a statute.

Some revisions may result in a clarification or change to an
existing statute.

FISCAL NOTE:  No impact on General Revenue Fund in FY 2011, FY
2012, and FY 2013.  Estimated Income on Other State Funds of
$1,500 in FY 2011, $0 in FY 2012, and $0 in FY 2013.

PROPONENTS:  Supporters say that the bill will correct provisions
of the statute that were passed in more than one bill after
consulting with the appropriate entity to determine which version
to retain.

Testifying for the bill was Representative McNary.

OPPONENTS:  There was no opposition voiced to the committee.
OTHERS:  Others testifying on the bill say that comments were
sought from all affected entities.  The bill will fix 38 of the
41 provisions of statute that were enacted more than once.

Testifying on the bill were Sandy Lueckenhoff, Legislative
Research; and Office of Administration.
