Editor's Note. - Session Laws 2011-240, s. 4, was codified as G.S. 90-113.64 at the direction of the Revisor of Statutes. Session Laws 2011-240, s. 1, provides: "It is the intent and purpose of this act to continue efforts begun with the Methamphetamine Lab Prevention Act of 2005 to regulate the sale of pseudoephedrine products that are used to manufacture methamphetamine. The use of electronic tracking of methamphetamine sales is being used in several states, including those bordering this State. Other states, which at the time of this act include Oregon and Mississippi, have seen a reduction in methamphetamine labs by designating pseudoephedrine and like products as Schedule III controlled substances, thereby requiring a prescription to obtain pseudoephedrine products. A study should be undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of this act in addressing the production of methamphetamine and to determine whether more stringent methods for the curtailment of methamphetamine production should be allowed to take effect." Session Laws 2015-241, s. 1.1, provides: "This act shall be known as 'The Current Operations and Capital Improvements Appropriations Act of 2015.'" Session Laws 2015-241, s. 33.6, is a severability clause. Effect of Amendments. - Session Laws 2015-241, s. 16B.5(b), effective July 1, 2015, inserted "Joint Legislative Oversight Committee on Justice and Public Safety and to the" preceding "Legislative Commission" in the first sentence. Session Laws 2021-90, s. 8(b), effective July 22, 2021, deleted "and to the Legislative Commission on Methamphetamine Abuse” following "Public Safety.” §§ 90-113.65 through 90-113.69: Reserved for future codification purposes.
