Summary
The committee approved a minor procedural change allowing agencies to submit a single combined form when filing interim rules; the change was described as a quality-of-life improvement and passed without discussion.
The Administrative Rules Committee approved a procedural change that will let agencies combine two previously separate forms required when filing interim rules into a single submission.
John (last name not specified in transcript), who presented the item, described the change as a “quality of life” improvement: the interim rule notice and the cover sheet contain overlapping questions, and combining the forms will reduce redundant work while still meeting statutory requirements.
A motion to approve the change was seconded and adopted by voice vote with no further discussion. Committee members noted the change is intended to ease administrative burden on agencies and staff and does not alter substantive rulemaking procedures.
The committee adjourned after calling for cancellation of any continued meeting, saying there was no further business.
