                                 CODE OF VIRGINIA

AUTHORITY FOR MINOR CHANGES TO THE CODE OF VIRGINIA (§ 30-149)

The Commission may correct unmistakable printer&#8217;s errors, misspellings and
other unmistakable errors in the statutes as incorporated into the Code of
Virginia, and may make consequential changes in the titles of officers and
agencies, and other purely consequential changes made necessary by the use in
the statutes of titles, terminology and references, or other language no longer
appropriate.

The Commission may renumber, rename, and rearrange any Code of Virginia titles,
chapters, articles, and sections in the statutes adopted, and make corresponding
changes in lists of chapter, article, and section headings, catchlines, and
tables, when, in the judgment of the Commission, it is necessary because of any
disturbance or interruption of orderly or consecutive arrangement.

The Commission may correct unmistakable errors in cross-references to Code of
Virginia sections and may change cross-references to Code of Virginia sections
which have become outdated or incorrect due to subsequent amendment to,
revision, or repeal of the sections to which reference is made.

The Commission may omit from the statutes incorporated into the Code of Virginia
provisions which, in the judgment of the Commission, are inappropriate in a
code, such as emergency clauses, clauses providing for specific nonrecurring
appropriations and general repealing clauses.
