 The text of each provision of the bill should be analyzed to detect and correct departures from the rules of style established for the Statutes by this Subpart.

   §  23.101. Punctuation, capitalization and orthography.

   §  23.102. Geographic names.

   §  23.103. Use of words or figures to express numbers.
