Joint committee confirms leadership change by unanimous consent
Summary
The Joint Committee on Administrative Rules approved its annual swap of chair and vice chair by unanimous consent before opening hearings on Certificate of Need rule changes.
The Joint Committee on Administrative Rules approved its annual leadership change by unanimous consent, then moved immediately into a hearing on proposed Certificate of Need rule amendments.
The committee conducted the statutorily required annual swap of chair and vice chair and recorded no opposition during voice confirmation. A nomination was made and seconded for the new chair and a separate nomination for vice chair, which was recorded as approved by voice vote ('aye'). The transcript contains inconsistent spellings of the newly named chair in the spoken record; the committee announced the change and proceeded with the day's agenda.
Committee officers then turned to the scheduled rule hearing. No formal roll‑call vote or roll‑call tally was taken on the leadership confirmations in the record; outcomes were handled by unanimous consent and voice affirmations. The meeting subsequently focused on two Certificate of Need rule proposals and a demonstration of a new online rule‑filing portal.
The committee did not receive public comment on the rules during this session and adjourned after scheduling a follow‑up meeting.
