The numbering bears no relation to the bill number. Quite frequently Senate Bill No. 1 may be Printer's No. 200 while Senate Bill No. 99 may be Printer's No. 196.(c)Subsequent printer's number.-Each time a bill is reprinted after being amended it is assigned a new printer's number bearing no relationship to its previous printer's numbers.
