The amendments to Bill HB 68 clarify the penalties related to loan contracts that violate specific regulations. Key changes include stating that any contract made in violation of these rules is void, meaning no payments can be collected. Additionally, the language has been refined to ensure that if a loan is made in violation, only the principal amount can be recovered, not any additional charges. These changes aim to enhance consumer protection and ensure stricter compliance among lending entities.
