Standing Committee • Senate Labor, Health and Social Services Committee

Adopted

Plain English: The amendment adds language to repeal a related law after the phrase 'conforming with changes to the North American Industry Classification System manual'.

Adds text to repeal a related law immediately following the part about conforming with changes in the North American Industry Classification System.

The amendment does not specify which related law is being repealed, so it's unclear what exact law will be affected.
