The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2022, section 245H.03, subdivision 1, regarding the certification of license-exempt child care centers. It removes the obsolete requirement that certification must be implemented by September 30, 2017, and replaces the word "shall" with "must" to emphasize the necessity of processing the certification on a phased-in schedule as determined by the commissioner.

This update aims to streamline the language and ensure that the certification process for license-exempt child care centers is clearly defined and enforced, reflecting current practices and timelines. By eliminating outdated provisions, the bill seeks to enhance the clarity and effectiveness of child care assistance regulations in Minnesota.
