§ Subd. 2. Agency rules. The revisor's office may integrate agency rules into Minnesota Statutes, or publish the rules as an adjunct to Minnesota Statutes, or coordinate publication of the rules with Minnesota Statutes.

§ Subd. 3. Negotiated contracts. The revisor's office may negotiate for all or part of the editing, indexing, compiling, and printing of Minnesota Statutes, supplements to Minnesota Statutes, and Laws of Minnesota and contract with a law book publisher for these services.
