1999 SESSION
992808323Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:
1. That § 9-77.11 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:
§ 9-77.11. Revision of the Code of Virginia; construction of statutes relating to titles amended.
The Code of Virginia shall continue to be gradually revised by revising one
title at a time. The Commission shall have the responsibility for drafting
recodification bills for introduction into the General Assembly. [ Any During
the ] recodification [ bill drafted by process, ] the Commission shall [
provide for the evaluate the need for and recommend the possible ]
repeal of any section or provision of or relating to the revised title that has not been implemented during
any of the previous five years because sufficient funds were not appropriated
by the General Assembly. The House Committee on Appropriations and the Senate
Committee on Finance shall assist the Commission in determining which sections
and provisions of the Code of Virginia meet these conditions for repeal. In
the revision of each title, all other sections of the Code of Virginia relating to
the same subject matter shall be revised to the extent necessary.
Whenever, during any session of the General Assembly, there shall have been enacted any statute purporting to revise, rearrange, amend, and recodify any title of the Code of Virginia, such statute shall be deemed to have been enacted prior to any other statute enacted at such session adding to, repealing, or amending and reenacting any portion of such title. Every such other statute shall be deemed to have so added to, repealed, or amended and reenacted, as the case may be, such title as so revised, rearranged, amended, and recodified. Effect shall be given to any such other, or subsequent, statute only to the extent of any apparent changes in the law as it existed prior to such session.
