Committee approves residential-habilitation rules consolidated into earlier docket
Summary
The committee approved a repeal and recodification of residential habilitation rules into the chapter approved earlier in the meeting, with staff saying substantive material was moved into the previously approved docket.
The committee considered the residential habilitation agencies docket and heard that substantive provisions had been recodified into the earlier developmental-disability docket. Jared Larson summarized the repeal and consolidation and told the committee it "should be a little bit easier" because the material is consolidated into the chapter they had already approved.
Representative McCann moved to approve docket 16-0417-2501 and the committee approved the motion by voice vote after brief discussion. Committee members asked whether the governor's proposed budget changes would make these rules unnecessary; Larson said the governor's recommendation removed a piece of a rate increase, not the service itself, and that the rules would still be necessary to govern any continuing services.
