- prior law: refers to the statutes concerning state police, civil defense, emergency management, military affairs, veterans affairs, and war memorials that are repealed or amended in the recodification act of the 2003 regular session of the general assembly as the statutes existed before the effective date of the applicable or corresponding provision of the recodification act of the 2003 regular session of the general assembly.

as necessary or appropriate to apply the recodification act of the 2003 regular session of the general assembly in a manner that does not result in a substantive change in the law. The principle of statutory construction that a court must apply the literal meaning of an act if the literal meaning of the act is unambiguous does not apply to the recodification act of the 2003 regular session of the general assembly to the extent that the recodification act of the 2003 regular session of the general assembly is not substantively identical to the prior law.
