This bill updates the legal citation for the section it amends to reflect recent changes made in 2025. It also modifies the effective date clause to ensure the new rules align with the timing of a related 2025 law.

The bill's substantive scope regarding who receives controlled substances remains unchanged, but the procedural context for its enactment has been adjusted.
TECHNICAL
Updated the reference to the previous law from chapter 878 of 1972 to chapter 511 of 2025 to maintain accurate legal history.
