IC 12-7-0.1
     Chapter 0.1. Effect of 1992 Recodification

IC 12-7-0.1-1
P.L.2-1992 intended to be codification and restatement of law; no effect on substantive operation of prior law; treatment of references to prior law
    
Sec. 1. (a) P.L.2-1992 is intended to be a codification and restatement of applicable or corresponding provisions repealed by P.L.2-1992. P.L.2-1992 is also intended to implement P.L.9-1991 to make conforming changes to carry out the legislative intent of P.L.9-1991. If P.L.2-1992 repeals and replaces a provision in the same form or in a restated form, the substantive operation and effect of that provision continue uninterrupted.
    (b) A SECTION of P.L.2-1992 does not affect any:
        (1) rights or liabilities accrued;
        (2) penalties incurred;
        (3) violations committed;
        (4) proceedings begun;
        (5) bonds, notes, loans, or other forms of indebtedness issued, incurred, or made; or
        (6) tax levies made;
before the effective date of that SECTION of P.L.2-1992. Those rights, liabilities, penalties, offenses, proceedings, bonds, notes, loans, other forms of indebtedness, and tax levies continue and shall be imposed and enforced under prior law as if that SECTION of P.L.2-1992 had not been enacted.
    (c) A reference in a statute or rule to a statute that is repealed and replaced in the same or a different form in P.L.2-1992 shall be treated after the effective date of the new provision as a reference to the new provision.
As added by P.L.220-2011, SEC.250.

IC 12-7-0.1-2
Status of rules adopted under prior law
    
Sec. 2. (a) Except as provided in subsection (b), a rule adopted under a provision repealed by P.L.2-1992 is valid and effective until a rule is adopted under IC 4-22-2 that:
        (1) supersedes in whole or in part the rule adopted under a provision repealed by P.L.2-1992; or
        (2) repeals the rule adopted under a provision repealed by P.L.2-1992.
    (b) If a rule adopted under a provision repealed by P.L.2-1992 before the effective date of the SECTION of P.L.2-1992 enacting or amending the statute authorizing the adoption:
        (1) has not been superseded or repealed as provided in

subsection (a); and
        (2) provides authority to a state agency that has been transferred to another state agency under P.L.2-1992;
the rule shall be interpreted to constitute an authorization to the state agency to which authority was transferred and not the former agency.
As added by P.L.220-2011, SEC.250.

IC 12-7-0.1-3
Preservation of background material related to recodification
    
Sec. 3. The general assembly may, by concurrent resolution, preserve any of the background materials related to P.L.2-1992.
As added by P.L.220-2011, SEC.250.
