What’s in it

This bill is based on the uniform electronic legal material Act (UELMA), prepared by the national conference of commissioners of uniform state laws in 2011. The prefatory note stresses the need for flexible approaches by adopting jurisdictions, observing that the UELMA “does not require specific technologies, leaving the choice of technology for authentication and preservation up to the states”. Specifically, the bill amends Code chapter 2B that provides for the publication of official and unofficial editions of legal publications, including the Iowa Constitution, the Iowa Acts, the Iowa Code, the Iowa Administrative Bulletin, and the Iowa Administrative Code.
