SMALL BUSINESS: Repeals requirements for enriching bread and flour sold in this state
This bill would remove state requirements that bread and flour sold in Louisiana must be enriched with vitamins. It directly affects bakeries, mills, and food manufacturers by eliminating the need to add specific vitamin levels to these products. The legislation repeals existing laws that mandate enrichment, labeling rules, and allow health department inspections and penalties for violations. By removing these regulations, the bill gives businesses more flexibility in how they produce and sell flour and bread without state-mandated nutritional additives.

MINOR
The bill was converted from an original draft to an enrolled act, finalizing its passage into law. The core policy remains the same: repealing state requirements to enrich bread and flour with vitamins. The primary changes are administrative, including the addition of official signatures and the removal of the legislative digest.
Scope change
The scope of the law itself did not change; it still applies to all bread and flour sold in the state by repealing the enrichment mandates. The change is in the document's status from a draft to an enacted law.
TECHNICAL
Added official signatures for the Speaker of the House, President of the Senate, and Governor, indicating the bill has been approved and enacted.
Removed the legislative digest, which is a non-binding summary explaining the bill's purpose and existing law.
Updated the header to reflect the bill's new status as 'Act No. 875' and 'Enrolled' rather than 'Original'.
