25-43-109. Correction of technical errors related to transformation of state government.
(a)(1) The General Assembly finds that:
(A) The transformation of the structure of state government under the Transformation and Efficiencies Act of 2019 involves changes to thousands of sections of the Arkansas Code concerning state entities;
(B) Many of the changes required are highly technical and require careful study of the purpose and context of each Arkansas Code section, with the need for some of the changes not becoming apparent until the implementation of the transformation of state government under this chapter;
(C) With a project as large and comprehensive as the transformation of state government under this chapter, it is inevitable that certain sections of the Arkansas Code requiring technical changes to follow the intent of this chapter will be either omitted or amended in a manner that is later found to be erroneous and unintentional; and
