What changed between versions

Edition 1 Adopted · 3 edits
MINOR
The bill was simplified from a resolution to consider confirmation to a resolution that directly confirms McKinley Wooten, Jr. as Secretary of the Department of Revenue. The language was streamlined to remove procedural 'whereas' clauses and change the operative section from considering confirmation to actually granting it.
Scope change
The scope changed from a procedural resolution to consider a nomination to a substantive resolution that immediately confirms the appointment.
REQUIREMENT

Removed the requirement for the Senate to consider whether to confirm the nominee; the resolution now directly confirms McKinley Wooten, Jr. as Secretary of the Department of Revenue.

TECHNICAL

Changed the title from 'Relating to the Appointment, Nomination, and Confirmation' to 'Confirming' to reflect the change in the resolution's operative effect.

Removed the 'Whereas' clauses that cited G.S. 143B-9(a) and the North Carolina Constitution, as they are no longer necessary for a confirmation resolution.
