Committee rejects consumer-protection gaming-closure rule without prejudice, urges agency follow-up
Summary
The committee voted to reject proposed regulation 2025-027 (Department of Consumer Protection) without prejudice and urged staff to work with the agency to address substantive concerns promptly to avoid delays in rulemaking.
The Legislative Regulation Review Committee on Oct. 28 voted to accept the LCO recommendation to reject, without prejudice, proposed regulation 2025-027 from the Department of Consumer Protection regarding gaming operator closure procedures.
Committee members said the substantive concerns that led to the recommendation are explained in the committee report and urged staff to reach back to the department to remedy issues quickly so the department can resubmit corrected language. "In the past, we've always been very collegial with the executive branch when things are rejected," a member said, asking staff to "reach back out to the various departments, and try to remedy those sooner rather than later."
There was no extended technical presentation by the agency during the committee discussion. Committee staff indicated that the substantive concerns are itemized in the report and that staff will work with the department if the co-chairs direct them to do so. The committee then called the roll and recorded votes to accept the recommendation of rejection without prejudice.
