Item 1

 
Section 44 corrects cross-references.

 
Section 45 corrects a cross-reference.

 
Section 46 corrects an error in a definition section by
striking out the number "25" and replacing it with the number
"15." Public Law 1997, chapter 515 amended section 844 to make
family medical leave entitlement apply to employees employed at
sites with fewer than 15 employees but failed to amend the
definition of "employer" in section 843 to make the parallel
change. This section amends section 843 to make it consistent
with section 844.

 
Section 47 corrects a conflict created by Public Law 1997,
chapters 737 and 776, which substantively affected the same
provision of law, by incorporating the changes made by both laws.

 
Section 48 corrects a cross-reference and grammatical error.

 
Section 49 corrects a cross-reference.

 
Section 50 corrects a cross-reference and grammatical error.

 
Section 51 corrects a conflict created by Public Law 1997,
chapters 495 and 526. Public Law 1997, chapter 495 adds language
specifying the assessor's authority and chapter 526 changes
references of the "Bureau of Taxation" to "bureau." The conflict
was corrected by combining changes made by both chaptered laws.

 
Section 52 corrects a conflict created by Public Law 1997,
chapters 459 and 526. Public Law 1997, chapter 459 makes
technical changes and specifies that the Director of Econometric
Research serves at the pleasure of the assessor and chapter 526
makes technical changes. The conflict was corrected by combining
changes made by both chaptered laws.

 
Section 53 corrects a conflict created by Public Law 1997,
chapters 495 and 526. Public Law 1997, chapter 495 adds language
specifying the assessor's authority and chapter 526 changes
references of the "Bureau of Taxation" to "bureau." The conflict
was corrected by combining changes made by both chaptered laws.

 
Section 54 corrects a cross-reference and grammatical errors.

 
Section 55 corrects a conflict created by Public Law 1997,
chapters 668 and 766, which affected the same provision of law.
Chapter 668 corrected a cross-reference and chapter 766 increased
the percentage of the employment tax increment a qualified
business may receive. This section incorporates the changes made
by both laws.
