TO:
MEMBERS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY
STATE AND LOCAL OFFICIALS
OTHER INTERESTED PERSONS
We are pleased to transmit to you the "Summary of General Statutes Enacted at the 1991 Session of the General Assembly of Georgia." This represents one of the services which the Legislative Services Committee and the Office of Legislative Counsel perform for the legislative branch of government. Other services include bill drafting, research, statutory and Code revision, rendering of opinions, counseling, legislative reference, interim committee staffing, and preparation of reports.
The Office of Legislative Counsel drafted a total of 5,000 bill, resolutions, and amendments for the 1991 session. Of this number, 1,114 had been prepared by the convening date of the session, leaving a total of 3,886 which were drafted during the session.
The members of the committee and the Office of Legislative Counsel join in the sincere hope that this booklet will be of benefit to those who use it.
FOREWORD
This booklet contains a summary of the general statutes of state-wide application which were enacted at the 1991 regular session of the General Assembly of Georgia. No resolutions or Acts with special application have been included. This year's booklet also includes for the first time a table of Code sections amended and enacted at the 1991 session.
It would be impractical to minutely analyze each statute because to do so would defeat the main purpose which it is hoped that this booklet accomplishes. It is intended to be used as a convenient reference for persons desiring to know which laws were enacted or desiring to ascertain the main features of each Act without the necessity of reading the Act in its entirety.
It should be pointed out that for specific, detailed information on any pa,rticular law, the Act itself should be examined. Acts may be readily located in the Georgia Laws by Act number, since the Acts are published in the Georgia Laws in numerical order by Act number. In addition, the Georgia Laws contain a table for converting Act numbers to Georgia Laws page numbers.
This summary is not to be deemed in any manner as an opinion from the Office of Legislative Counsel, and the question of constitutionality has not been considered in any respect.
It is hoped that this booklet will benefit all who have occasion to use it. Comments and suggestions for improvement are welcomed and should be directed to the Office of Legislative Counsel.
