What the document says
“The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development shall coordinate with the International Code Council to encourage the International Code Council to incorporate provisions about point-access block buildings into the International Building Code.”
The section requires the Secretary to coordinate with the International Code Council and to encourage it to put provisions about point-access block buildings into the International Building Code.
What the document actually says
“The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development shall coordinate with the International Code Council to encourage the International Code Council to incorporate provisions about point-access block buildings into the International Building Code.”
That sentence, in plain words
The housing agency must work with the group that writes a building code. It must urge that group to add rules for these buildings.
What this is about
The building code named here is not a federal law. It is a model that many states copy. The agency can ask them to add rules. It cannot order it.

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.
