Department of Safety adopts rules for declaratory‑order petitions
Summary
The Department of Safety proposed rules implementing the statutory petition process for declaratory orders; the department said the rules mirror Secretary of State model language and aim to ensure fairness. Committee gave a positive recommendation.
The Department of Safety presented rules setting procedures for petitions for declaratory orders under state statute, following model language from the Secretary of State. Graham Tudor, the department's director of legislation, said the rules were adopted after a retrospective review found no existing rules and noted a November rulemaking hearing with no public comment.
Tudor said the rules were designed to ensure fair treatment for petitioners and other affected parties and to provide an administrative pathway for questions about the applicability of statutes, rules or orders. Committee members had no further substantive questions and recorded a positive recommendation.
