Substitute offered
by
To replace the previous version of the bill with a "conflict substitute" which resolves a conflict in the numbering of the statute to be amended. This conflict arose because another bill adding a new section to that statute was signed into law since the previous version of this bill was drafted. There are no substantive changes between the H-2 and H-3 versions of the bill.
