The bill aims to adopt and incorporate various general and permanent laws enacted during the 2024 Regular Session into the Code of Alabama 1975. This includes the 2024 Cumulative Supplements to specific volumes of the code and the 2025 Replacement Volumes 16A, 18, and 18A. Additionally, it seeks to adopt local laws from Volume 22N (Revised) covering Pickens through Russell Counties and make necessary corrections to existing laws, such as typographical errors and scrivener's errors. Notably, the bill specifies that the adoption and incorporation of these laws represent a continuous systematic codification of the Code of Alabama 1975 and does not affect any statutes enacted during the 2025 session.
Furthermore, the bill outlines the responsibilities of the Code Publisher, Thomson Reuters, in certifying the accuracy of the published volumes and ensuring that no substantive changes were made during the editing process. It also emphasizes that the act does not repeal or amend any statutes from the 2025 session and mandates that the authenticated volumes be filed with the Secretary of State, who will maintain custody of these documents. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
