MINOR
The bill was amended to add a new section (3724.10) clarifying that licensed child care centers can continue providing special needs care, and to add section 3724.10 to the list of enacted sections. The primary substantive change is the addition of section 3724.10, which removes potential ambiguity about whether existing child care licenses cover special needs services. The rest of the bill remains substantively unchanged, with only formatting adjustments to the header and section numbering.
Scope change
The bill's scope was slightly expanded by explicitly confirming that child care centers licensed under Chapter 5104 may continue to provide special needs child care services. This clarification ensures that existing child care providers are not inadvertently restricted from serving children with special needs.
SCOPE

Added section 3724.10 to explicitly state that child care centers licensed under Chapter 5104 are not prohibited from providing or continuing to provide special needs child care services.

TECHNICAL

Added section 3724.10 to the list of enacted sections in the bill's purpose statement and Section 1.

Reformatted the header to include cosponsor information and adjusted section numbering formatting.
