That sentence, in plain words

The number 5 is taken out of an older crop law. The number 10 is put in.

What this is about

That number sets how long a farmer counts as new. Doubling it means the label lasts twice as long. The older law it sits in is not indexed here.

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.
