Makes identical changes to the requirements for a business to qualify as a veteran-owned business.

Amends proposed GS 57D-2-24(a1) and proposed GS 59-84.4(a1), to remove statutory references to definitions.
Amends proposed GS 57D-2-25, requiring the Secretary of State to annually report the summary information on veteran-owned small businesses and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses to DMVA by March 1 of each year (previously, did not provide a deadline, and instead required the information to be included in the annual report required by GS 55-16-22.2).
Amends proposed GS 59-84.5, requiring the Secretary of State to annually report the summary information on veteran-owned small businesses and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses to DMVA by March 1 of each year (previously, did not provide a deadline, and instead required the information to be included in the annual report required by GS 55-16-22.2).
Amends GS 57D-1-03 and GS 59-32, which sets out the definitions for the Chapters. Adds the terms service-disabled veteran, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, veteran, and veteran-owned small business to the statute. Defines the added terms identically to those set out in GS 55-1-40 as amended by this act.
