revision

Looking over a thing, such as an article or a schedule of public utility rates, and reviewing it carefully for the purpose of making changes, additions, and corrections, if such be deemed advisable. Goodwin v Prime, 92 Me 355, 363, 42 A 785. In local assessment proceedings, the words “revision" and "correction" refer to the fact that the board may be called upon to review that which has been done, and to make the proceedings conform to the law. Hutcheson v Storrie, 92 Tex 685, 51 SW 848. To revise is to review or re-examine for correction, and when applied to a statute, the word contemplates the re-examination of the same subject matter contained in the prior statute, and the substitution of a new, and what is believed to be, a still more perfect rule. Casey v Harried, 5 Iowa 1.
