That sentence, in plain words

In one part of an older law, write in one more word. It goes right after another word.

What this is about

A conforming change keeps the rest of a law in step. The new rule is about sign-up. So the word sign-up is added where the old law named only checks.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
