D.C. Code § 32-1051.06
Applicability
Section 7016 of D.C. Law 22-33 repealed § 18 of D.C. Law 21-157. Therefore the changes made to this section by D.C. Law 21-157 have been implemented.
Applicability of D.C. Law 21-157: § 18 of D.C. Law 21-157 provided that the creation of this section by § 7 of D.C. Law 21-157 is subject to the inclusion of the law's fiscal effect in an approved budget and financial plan. Therefore that amendment has not been implemented.
