9Acts 49
and 55, is amended to read:

1establishment, as defined under s. 97.01 (1g), except that the rules apply to all of the
2following:
Note: The “dwelling code council" was renamed the “uniform dwelling code
council" by 2015 Wis. Act 29. Section 254.47 was renumbered to s. 97.67 by 2015 Wis. Act
55
.

19department, the date on which an award has been entered based on the compromise,

21actions is filed with the department.

Note: Inserts correct term. A draft of the amendment of this provision by 2015 Wis.
Act 55
changed “department" to “office," but that change was not retained in the final bill.
This single occurrence of “office" in s. 102.16, left a reference without an antecedent.
AB847,57 1Section 57. 108.04 (8) (b) of the statutes, as created by 2015 Wisconsin Act 55,
2is amended to read:
AB847,23,43 108.04 (8) (b) There is a rebuttable presumption that an employee has failed,
4without good cause, to accept suitable work when offered if the department
5determines, based on a report submitted by an employing unit in accordance with s.
6108.133 (4), that the employing unit required, as a condition of an offer of
7employment, that the employee submit to a test for the presence of controlled
8substances and withdrew the conditional offer after the employee either declined to
9submit to such a test or tested positive for one or more controlled substances without
10evidence of a valid prescription for each controlled substance for which the employee
11tested positive. In the case of the employee declining to submit to such a test, the
12employee shall be ineligible for benefits until the employee again qualifies for
13benefits in accordance with the rules promulgated under this paragraph. In the case
14of the employee testing positive in such a test without evidence of a valid
15prescription, the employee shall be ineligible for benefits until the employee again
16qualifies for benefits in accordance with the rules promulgated under this
17paragraph, except that the employee may maintain his or her eligibility for benefits
18in the same manner as is provided in s. 108.133 (3) (d). The department shall
19promulgate rules identifying a period of ineligibility that must elapse or a
20requalification requirement that must be satisfied, or both, in order for an employee
21who becomes ineligible for benefits as provided in this paragraph to again qualify for
22benefits and specifying how a claimant may overcome the presumption in this
23paragraph. The department shall charge to the fund's balancing account any

1benefits otherwise chargeable to the account of an employer that is subject to the
2contribution requirements under ss. 108.17 and 108.18 whenever an employee of
3that employer fails, without good cause, to accept suitable work as described in this
4paragraph.
Note: Inserts missing article.

12otherwise provided in this subchapter, the commission may not assign any other
13persons to the collective bargaining units under sub. (1r) or (1t).
Note: Section 111.825 (2) (a), (b), (c), (g), (h), and (i) were renumbered effective July
1, 2015, by 2011 Wis. Act 32. The cross-reference is changed to reflect the law in effect
immediately prior to the renumbering.

17provide the data needed by the entity under subd. 1. for purposes of making the
18report required under sub. (3m) (a) 6. (f).
Note: Corrects a cross-reference. Section 118.40 (3m) (f) relates to reports to the
state superintendent by entities. Section 118.40 (3m) (f) was originally drafted as s.
118.40 (3m) (a) 6., but was renumbered s. 118.40 (3m) (f) when s. 118.40 (3m) (b) was
removed from the bill that became 2015 Wis. Act 55.
AB847,60 19Section 60. 118.51 (12) (a) (title) of the statutes is repealed.
Note: Section 118.51 (12) (a) was renumbered to s. 118.51 (12) by 2015 Wis. Act
55
without accounting for the paragraph title. Section 118.51 (12) has an existing title,

rendering the paragraph title surplusage. The paragraph title has been removed from
the published statutes.
AB847,61 1Section 61. 118.60 (3) (ar) 4. and 5. of the statutes, as affected by 2015
2Wisconsin Act 55

11notice under this subdivision, the department determines that the number of pupils
12attending private schools under this section falls below a school district's pupil
13participation limit under sub. (2) (be), the department shall fill any available slot in
14that school district with a pupil selected from the school district's waiting list
15established under subd. 4., if such a waiting list exists.
Note: Corrects cross-reference. Section 118.60 (2) (be) establishes pupil
participation limits. Inserts missing “list" as indicated by the use of “such a waiting list."
AB847,62 16Section 62. The treatment of 119.04 (1) of the statutes by 2015 Wisconsin Act
1755

4building in the previous school year was less than 80 percent of the number of hours
5of pupil instruction required to be scheduled under s. 121.02 (1) (f) 2.
Note: Corrects cross-reference. There is no s. 121.02 (1) (f) 2. Section 121.02 (1)
(f) provides the number of hours of pupil instruction that school boards are required to
schedule.
AB847,64 6Section 64. 119.9003 (4) (c) of the statutes, as created by 2015 Wisconsin Act
755

12the limit on schools in the opportunity schools and partnership program under s.
13119.9002 (2) (a), but not for purposes of performance benchmarking.

schools in the opportunity schools and partnership program.
AB847,65 14Section 65. 153.455 (2) of the statutes is amended to read:

consolidated and renumbered s. 153.60 (intro.) and (1) to be s. 153.60 and amended s.
153.60, as renumbered. The amendment of s. 153.60 by Act 55 deleted the provision for
the assessment of health care providers in the former s. 153.60 (1), rendering s. 153.75
(1) (k) without effect.
