The bill S. 228 proposes the adoption of a revised Volume 9 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, which includes Titles 21-24. This revised volume will replace the original Volume 9, which also contained Titles 21-24. The Legislative Council and the Code Commissioner have determined that this revision is appropriate and have submitted it for consideration by the General Assembly.

Upon approval, the revised Volume 9 will be recognized as the only general permanent statutory law of South Carolina as of January 1, 2025. The act will take effect once it receives the Governor's approval.
