The bill, known as SB125, seeks to extend the existence and operations of the Alabama State Board of Public Accountancy until October 1, 2028, in accordance with the Alabama Sunset Law. The legislation reflects the recommendations of the Sunset Committee, which has determined that the Board should continue its functions. The bill explicitly preserves the relevant code sections, specifically Chapter 1 of Title 34 and Section 40-12-71 of the Code of Alabama 1975, ensuring that the Board's legal framework remains intact.
The act will take effect on June 1, 2024, and includes the insertion of the phrase "Enrolled," indicating its finalization. There are no deletions from current law noted in this bill, as it primarily focuses on the continuation of the Board's existence rather than altering existing legal provisions. The bill has successfully passed both the Senate and the House of Representatives.
