Item 1

 
Statutes, Title 9-B. This bill applies this change retroactively
to July 1, 2003.

 
This bill corrects a conflict created by Public Law 2003,
chapters 469 and 510, which both affected the Maine Revised
Statutes, Title 22, section 253, subsection 3, by repealing the
provision.

 
This bill corrects the law concerning certified nursing
assistants. Public Law 2003, chapter 376 amended the Maine
Revised Statutes, Title 22, section 1812-G, subsection 7, which
governs certified nursing assistants, or "CNAs." The new law

 
includes provisions prohibiting the employment of a CNA in
certain situations if the CNA was convicted within the last 10
years of certain crimes. Chapter 376 lists those situations as
hospitals, home health agencies and assisted housing programs.
Nursing facilities were inadvertently omitted from the list.
This bill amends the law to include nursing facilities and makes
that change retroactive to June 2, 2003, the date on which
chapter 376 took effect.

 
This bill corrects a conflict created by Public Law 2003,

3477, subsection 1, paragraph A and repeals and replaces Title
22, section 4011-A, subsection 1, paragraph A to correct the
spelling of "humane agent" and to correct an error in formatting.

 
This bill corrects a conflict created by Public Law 2003,
chapters 411 and 510, which both affected the Maine Revised
Statutes, Title 22, section 8103, subsection 1, by repealing that

This bill applies the section of Public Law 2003, chapter 510
that repeals and replaces the Maine Revised Statutes, Title 5,
section 191 retroactively to July 1, 2003.

 
This bill repeals Public Law 2003, chapter 510, Part C,
section 10 retroactively to January 11, 2004.

that repeal and replace the Maine Revised Statutes, Title 22,
section 3477, subsection 1, paragraph A and section 4011-A,
