AN ACT TO DISSOLVE THE COMMITTEE APPOINTED TO STUDY MANDATORY MINIMUM AND ALTERNATIVE SENTENCES CREATED BY THE CRIME BILL OF 1995.
Whereas, the Committee to Study Mandatory Minimum and Alternative Sentences has determined that several other organizations are examining these same issues and that its efforts would be duplicative. Now, therefore,
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
Mandatory minimum and alternative sentences
SECTION 1. The Committee to Study Mandatory Minimum and Alternative Sentences, created by Section 59 of Act 83 of 1995, is dissolved.
Time effective
SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
Approved the 31st day of March, 1997.
