This bill continues the practice of amending periodically the Delaware Revised Uniform Partnership Act (the "Act") to keep it current and to maintain its national preeminence. The following is a section-by-section review of the proposed amendments of the Act. Section 1. Section 1 amends 15-403(d) of the Act to confirm that a partner may make a books and records request in person or by an attorney or other agent. Section 2. Section 2 amends 15-407(d) of the Act to confirm and clarify that, unless otherwise provided in a partnership agreement, a person who is not then a partner may consent to any matter as a partner provided that such consent will only be effective at a time when such person is a partner of the partnership. Section 3. This section provides that the proposed amendments of the Act shall become effective August 1, 2014.
