Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plan for Collating the Statutes Preparatory to the Work of Consolidation and Revision: Containing the Report of the Chairman on a General Plan for the Consolidation and Classification of the Statutes and a Detailed Plan for Making a Card Record of the History and Substance of the Statutes of the State The act under which the Board of Statutory Consolidation was created provides that it shall be the duty of the board to direct and control the revision, simplification, arrangement and consolidation of the statutes of the state that the plan and scope of the work shall follow that adopted in the gen eral laws, so far as practicable; that the statutes shall not be changed in substance except that as to matters of pro cedure the board shall report for enactment such amendments as it may deem proper and necessary to condense and simplify the existing practice and as shall adapt the procedure to existing conditions and that the board in its final report shall suggest such contradictions, omission and imperfec tions as may appear in the original text, with the manner in which they have reconciled, amended or supplied the same. L. 1904 Ch. Before this work can be accomplished related provisions of statutory law must be brought together. It is impossible to collect them with any certainty of com pleteness from the indexes of any existing publications. Some °of the provisions are to be found in the general laws some in the codes and very many lie buried in the session laws. A consolidation and revision which relied upon editorial com pilatious of the statutes or indexes to the session laws to col lect kindred provisions would be incomplete as it would be impossible to know whether or not the entire field upon a particular subject had been covered. The plan outlined in this book is intended as the guide for collating the statutes for the work of actual consolidation and revision. It has been adopted as the best means for bringing together related statutory provisions preparatory to the performance of the task set before the board by the legislature.
