Effective: June 29, 2021 History: Created 2021 Ky. Acts ch. 167, sec. 13, effective June 29, 2021. Legislative Research Commission Note (12/15/2022). On December 15, 2022, the Kentucky Supreme Court ruled that the Education Opportunity Account Act, KRS 141.500 to 141.528, as enacted in 2021 HB 563 (2021 Ky. Acts ch. 167), "violates the proscription in Section 184 of the Kentucky Constitution on the raising or collecting of 'sum[s]' for 'education other than in common schools'." Commonwealth ex rel. Cameron v. Johnson, et al., 2021-SC-0518-TG. Legislative Research Commission Note (9/17/2021). 2021 Ky. Acts ch. 185 reorganized part of the Public Protection Cabinet to abolish the Kentucky Claims Commission, establish the Office of Claims and Appeals, and attach the Board of Claims, Board of Tax Appeals, and Crime Victims Compensation Board to the office. A reference to the Kentucky Claims Commission in this statute should have been changed to Board of Tax Appeals in codification to conform, but was inadvertently omitted. The Reviser of Statutes has made the conforming correction under the authority of KRS 7.136(2).
