Clarifies workers' comp advisory council rules
The law deletes one subdivision from § 4-29-246(a). It adds a cross‑reference in § 4-29-252(a) to the Advisory Council on Workers' Compensation created by § 50-6-121. This ties the council to the correct place in state law. It does not change benefits, taxes, or funding. The changes take effect immediately.
