Summary

The Senate concurred with a House amendment to S.30, a bill reorganizing health insurance statutes in 8 V.S.A. chapter 107. The amendment restores an inadvertently omitted paragraph and moves the effective date to Sept. 1, 2025 to allow timely publication of updated statutes.

The Vermont Senate on April 18 concurred with a House amendment to S.30, a bill that updates and reorganizes health-insurance statutes in 8 V.S.A. chapter 107. The amendment restores a paragraph that drafting staff had inadvertently omitted and advances the bill’s effective date to Sept. 1, 2025 to permit the publisher to include changes in the next printed volume.

Senator Hardy (reporting the bill) described the omission as a drafting error discovered by the statutes publisher. "A paragraph was left out of the draft inadvertently because the paragraph did not show up in the electronic version of the statutes that our drafting attorney was using to draft the bill," the senator said, explaining the amendment simply inserts the missing paragraph and contains other technical edits.

The amendment was described as technical and non‑substantive; the Senate recorded concurrence by voice vote.

Ending: The Senate announced it had concurred with the House proposal of amendment on S.30.
