(1) It is the duty of the revisor of
statutes, upon approval by the speaker of the house and the president of the
senate, to arrange and prepare for publication, immediately after the adjournment
of each session of the general assembly, a copy of all the laws passed at such
session, together with such resolutions and memorials passed at such session and
furnished to the revisor of statutes for publication by the chief clerk of the house
and the secretary of the senate, and all initiated and referred laws which have been
passed by the vote of the people. The session laws shall contain a full index, a
tabulation by Colorado Revised Statutes section numbers of all changes made to
such statutes by amendment, repeal, or addition of new subject matter, and a
disposition table by house and senate bill number to the session laws and to
Colorado Revised Statutes. The revisor of statutes shall see that the printing and
binding of the laws are well-executed. The contract and sales pertaining to such
publication shall be handled in accordance with this article. The signature of the
president of the senate, speaker of the house, and governor shall not be printed at
the end of each law, but only the date of the approval by the governor shall be
shown. The certificate of the contents of the session laws volumes shall be signed
by the speaker of the house and the president of the senate.

(2) If the committee on legal services finds that economy and efficiency will
be achieved, the committee may combine the contract for the publication of session
laws of Colorado with that for the publication of Colorado Revised Statutes, in
which event the bid and contract provisions of this part 2 shall not apply, and the
bid and contract provisions of article 5 of title 2, C.R.S., shall apply.

(3) The classification and arrangement by chapter, article, and number
system of sections in any enactment of the general assembly printed in the session
laws of Colorado, as well as the section titles or captions and other editorial matter
included in the session laws, form no part of the legislative text enacted thereby.
Such inclusion is only for the purpose of convenience, orderly arrangement, and
information; therefore, no implication or presumption of a legislative construction is
to be drawn therefrom.
