Existing law sets forth various provisions which prohibit an egg product or egg from being sold, offered for sale or transported for the purpose of sale within this State that is produced by an egg-laying hen that is confined in certain enclosures that have less than 1 square foot of usable floor space per egg-laying hen or that are not cage-free housing systems. (NRS 583.211-583.251) Section 2 of this bill repeals these provisions. As a result of this repeal, egg products or eggs that are produced by an egg-laying hen in such an enclosure may be sold, offered for sale or transported for the purpose of sale within this State. Section 1 of this bill makes a conforming change by removing references to the provisions repealed by section 2.
