enhances the benefits payable to an individual pursuant to Title 60.2.

B. No bill enhancing the benefits payable to an individual pursuant to Title

bill contains a statement prepared in accordance with subsection A as a second
or final enactment clause in the bill.

C. For the purposes of this section, legislation that &#8220;enhances the
benefits payable to an individual&#8221; includes any legislation that would
