Legislative Research Commission Note (6/24/2015). Under the authority of KRS
7.136(1)(h), during codification of 2015 Ky. Acts ch. 29, sec. 4 (this statute), the Reviser of Statutes has corrected a reference in subsection (15) to “Section 15 of this Act” to read instead “Section 16 of this Act” since the text of subsection (15) is referring to a revolving fund established in Section 16 of that Act, not Section 15. As codified, Section 16 became KRS § 309.082.
