2002 REGULAR SESSION BILL TRACKING REPORT
This report lists the bills considered during the General Assembly's 2002 regular session whose provisions were enacted under another bill number. The provisions of many bills that die in committee or on the calendar in fact become law after (1) the original committee incorporates them in another bill that receives a favorable report or (2) a member offers the concept as an amendment that is adopted and incorporated in another bill. This report includes bills that may have changed in the final enactment from the language of the original committee bill or file, but represent the legislature's final action on the matter. Acts the legislature passed but the governor vetoed are included.
During the 2002 regular session, the content or concept of 61 bills started as separate legislation but were later incorporated in other bills that passed. Table 1 lists the bills that died in bill number order and shows the public act that included the original bill's provision. Table 2 lists the bills by the committee to which they were first referred.
