Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:
 

SECTION 1 Section 1 of chapter 151A of the General Laws, as appearing in the 2016 Official Edition, is hereby amended by striking out, in lines 343 and 344, the words “reported for the highest quarter” and inserting in place thereof the following words:-
