The section adds a new paragraph (7) to section 604(a) of the National Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Standards Act of 1974 requiring the Secretary, consulting the consensus committee, to issue revised standards for manufactured homes built without a permanent chassis, using the process in paragraph (4) of that subsection.

That sentence, in plain words

The housing agency must write new standards. They cover homes built without a steel frame. It must work with a standing group of advisers.

What this is about

A standard is a rule about how a home is built. The advisers are called the consensus committee. The older law sets out how such rules are made.

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.
