AI Summary

This bill updates a reference in the state's vehicle code to the "children trust Michigan board," which is a body established to prevent child abuse and neglect, by ensuring that the design of special fund-raising or collector plates that recognize children's trust is determined by the secretary of state in consultation with this board. Additionally, it clarifies that donations collected for these plates, as outlined in sections 811f and 811g of the vehicle code, will be transferred by the secretary of state to the state treasurer and credited to the children's trust fund, which supports and benefits children in the state. This change is part of a larger legislative package, as indicated by the "TIE BAR" notation, meaning it will only take effect if other related bills are also enacted.
