An Act relative to sales and excise tax exemptions for disabled veterans.


                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 of chapter 60A of the General Laws, as appearing in the 2006 Official Edition, is hereby amended by inserting, in line 101, after the word "disabled" the following words:-- ;and who qualify for and are therefore entitled to display thereon the distinctive number plates authorized by section 2 chapter 90.

Section 6 of chapter 64H of the General Laws, as appearing in the 2006 Official Edition, is hereby amended by striking out, in lines 312 and 313, the words "and has been issued a disabled veteran number plate under section 2 of said chapter 90" and inserting in place thereof the following words:-- ; and who qualify for and are therefore entitled to display thereon the distinctive number plates authorized by section 2 chapter 90.
