MINOR
The bill has transitioned from a Senate substitute version to an enrolled version, indicating it has been fully approved by the General Assembly and is now law. No substantive policy changes, such as new requirements, funding amounts, or eligibility criteria, are present in this diff; the changes are strictly administrative, updating the bill's status and removing committee-related text.
TECHNICAL
Removed the 'Senate Substitute' header, bill number, committee attribution, and patron name, as these are no longer relevant once the bill is enacted.
Added the 'Enrolled' header and official act language, confirming the bill has passed both chambers and is now part of the Virginia Acts of Assembly.
