The bill H. 5247 proposes to amend the South Carolina Code of Laws by repealing Section 2-17-150, which pertains to the statute of limitations for prosecuting lobbying violations. This change aims to eliminate the time constraints currently in place for bringing forth legal action against individuals or entities accused of violating lobbying regulations.

If enacted, the bill will take effect immediately upon approval by the Governor, thereby allowing for the prosecution of lobbying violations without the limitations previously established in the repealed section. This legislative action reflects a shift in the state's approach to regulating lobbying activities and ensuring accountability.
