Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

Under s. 10.53, if the revisor finds that a conflict exists between the listings in Subchapter II of Chapter 10 of the statutes (ss. 10.62 to 10.82) and the substantive statutes to which those sections refer, the revisor is to correct the listing in that subchapter to properly reflect the intent of the substantive statute or of the act of the legislature on which the substantive statute is based, incorporating the changes in a revisor's correction bill submitted to the legislature. Specific changes made by this revisor's correction bill are explained in the Notes provided by the revisor of statutes in the body of the bill.
