56, and
2009 Wis. Act 94, section
113, create very
similar, but not identical, provisions that are numbered s. 48.38 (4m). This treatment
gives effect to both acts by merging the text of the two provisions and eliminating minor
differences in punctuation and sentence structure. The provision created as s. 48.38 (4m)
(c) in Act 94 is created as s. 48.38 (4m) (d) in Act 79, and a provision with no counterpart
in Act 94 is created as s. 48.38 (4m) (c) in Act 79. The provision created as 48.38 (4m) (c)
in Act 79 is recreated here as s. 48.38 (4m) (c), and the provision created as s. 48.38 (4m)
(c) in Act 94 and as s. 48.38 (4m) (d) in Act 79 is recreated here as s. 48.38 (4m) (d). Act
79, section 57, and Act 94, section 114, each eliminated the phrase "treatment foster
