State of New Hampshire Revised Statutes Online
Cooperative Marketing and Rural Electrification Association (Chapter 301)
Consumers' Cooperative Association (Chapter 301-A)
Foreign Partnership (Chapter 305-A)
Each year, new laws are passed which amend current sections in the New Hampshire Revised Statutes Annotated (RSAs), insert new sections, reenact sections or repeal sections. The printed and online versions of the RSAs do not immediately reflect these changes. The List of Sections Affected (LSA; found here) identifies all changes made to the statutes during specific legislative sessions. Please refer to the LSA's to determine if any changes have been made to the specific RSA you are viewing.
The New Hampshire Revised Statutes Annotated found at NH.gov, while believed to be accurate, are provided for informational purposes only. For the official version of any statute, please consult the bound volumes and supplements of the New Hampshire Revised Statutes Annotated, published by West Publishing, a Thomson business. These volumes can usually be found at your local library.
