MINOR
The bill was amended to reflect its progression through the legislative process, including the discharge of the committee and the addition of a specific effective date. The most significant substantive change is the establishment of a delayed effective date for new tax collection rules, ensuring they only apply to premiums received on or after January 1, 2027, rather than taking effect immediately.
Scope change
The bill's scope remains focused on the Centerport Volunteer Exempt Firemen's Benevolent Association, but the applicability of new tax provisions has been temporally restricted to future fiscal periods.
TIMELINE
The effective date for new tax collection rules was changed from 'immediately' to 'January 1, 2027', providing a one-year transition period before the new requirements apply.
TECHNICAL
Procedural text was added to indicate that the committee was discharged, the bill was amended, and it was ordered to be reprinted.
The bill number was updated from '9947' to '9947--A' to reflect the amended version.
