in available Session Laws

Session Laws are those laws, which have been passed by the legislature for a particular year. These laws are generally incorporated into the General Laws of the Commonwealth, unless they are temporary in nature or do not apply statewide, when they would be considered Special Acts.

Special Acts are those laws, which are NOT incorporated into the General Laws. They are enacted as Session Laws for a particular year.
