2. The provisions of this subchapter shall be implemented when the legislative council approves a plan presented by the legislative services agency. The plan shall provide for the implementation of this subchapter in a manner that best benefits users of the general assembly's internet site on a reliable, long-term, and cost-effective basis, and which may include a budget estimate necessary to complete implementation. The legislative services agency may request the legislative council to approve a policy for the use of an account in which receipts from the revenue from distributions of publications credited to the account may be expended by the legislative services agency on a multiyear revolving basis, so long as such revenue is used exclusively to pay for costs associated with implementing the provisions of this subchapter as well as ordinary expenditures associated with producing and distributing printed and electronic versions of publications including as provided in section 2.42, chapter 2A, and this chapter. However, if the legislative services agency determines that it may fully implement this subchapter without preparing a detailed plan for approval by the legislative council, it shall prepare and submit a report to the legislative council describing the implementation.
3. This section shall be implemented on July 1, 2019.
