Effective: July 12, 2012
History: Amended 2012 Ky. Acts ch. 129, sec. 1, effective July 12, 2012; and ch. 158, sec. 55, effective July 12, 2012. — Created 1970 Ky. Acts ch. 276, sec. 2.
Legislative Research Commission Note (7/12/2012). This statute was amended by 2012
Ky. Acts chs. 129 and 158, which do not appear to be in conflict and have been codified together. The amendments are identical, except that in subsection (1), ch.
129 refers to KRS § 216A.040 (“Section 4 of this Act”) and ch. 158 refers to KRS
216A.030 (“Section 57 of this Act”). It is clear from the context that the reference in both bills is intended to be to KRS § 216A.040, and the Reviser of Statutes has corrected this manifest clerical or typographical error under KRS § 7.136(1).
Legislative Research Commission Note (7/12/2012). 2012 Ky. Acts ch. 146, sec. 144, directs the Reviser of Statutes to replace references in the statutes to “mentally retarded” with “individuals with an intellectual disability.” A reference in 2012 Ky. Acts ch. 129, sec. 1(4) (this statute), to “the mentally retarded and developmentally disabled” has been changed in codification to “individuals with an intellectual or developmental disability” to comply with the directive in 2012 Ky. Acts ch. 146 and usage found elsewhere in the statutes.
