(16) from s. 70.47 (13), but the cross-reference in s. 70.075 (3) was not changed.

SENATE BILL 1048 SECTION 21
NOTE: Inserts correct cross-reference. Section 71.745 (2) (a) was created by 2021
Wis. Act 262 and refers to computing the applicable tax rate, while s. 71.745 (1) (a) does
not exist.
1 SECTION 22. The treatment of 71.88 (2) (b) of the statutes by 2021 Wisconsin
2 Act 127 is not repealed by 2021 Wisconsin Act 262. Both treatments stand.

10 department of children and families or a county child support agency under s. 59.53
11 (5) and related to paternity or child support proceedings, as provided in a

13 (c), an action taken under this paragraph is subject to review only as provided in the
14 memorandum of understanding entered into under s. 49.857 and not as provided in
15 ch. 227.
NOTE: Identifies the correct agency in charge of suspending or denying licenses for
non-attorneys to appear in worker's compensation cases. 2021 Wisconsin Act 232
changed “the department [of workforce development]” in s. 102.17 (1) (c) to (ct) to instead
be “the division [of hearings and appeals in the department of administration],” but failed
to make this change in s. 102.17 (1) (cm). Drafting records indicate that the change was
intended.

SENATE BILL 1048 SECTION 25
NOTE: There is no conflict of substance.
1 SECTION 26. 115.997 (2) (a) and (3) (a) 1. of the statutes are amended to read:
2 115.997 (2) (a) “Active duty" means full-time active duty status in a uniformed
3 service of the United States, including members of the National Guard and Reserve
4 on active duty orders pursuant to 10 USC chs. 1209 and 1211.
5 (3) (a) 1. An active duty member of the uniformed service, including a member
6 of the national guard and reserve on active duty orders pursuant to 10 USC chs. 1209
7 and 1211.
NOTE: Section 115.997 (2) (a) and (3) (a) 1. were created as part of the Interstate
Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children. The original compact text,
which was incorporated into the Wisconsin statutes, included an incorrect
cross-reference to 10 USC 1209 and 1211. Those sections of federal law relate to members
being transferred to inactive status and members who are on the temporary disability
retired list; whereas 10 USC chs. 1209 and 1211 relate to members of the national guard
and reserve who are on active duty, which is the subject of s. 115.997 (2) (a) and (3) (a) 1.

“epinephrine auto-injector or prefilled syringe” in ch. 118 to “epinephrine delivery
system” but failed to make this change in s. 118.2925 (1) (a). The change was intended.
11 SECTION 28. The treatment of 146.81 (1) (dg) of the statutes by 2021 Wisconsin
12 Act 23, section 71, is not repealed by 2021 Wisconsin Act 251. Both treatments stand.
NOTE: There is no conflict of substance.
13 SECTION 29. The treatment of 146.82 (3) (a) of the statutes by 2021 Wisconsin
