What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, a person must have a certificate of food protection practices
to manage or operate a restaurant. A person must pass a written examination that
is approved by the Department of Health Services (DHS), or achieve comparable
compliance, to obtain a certificate. A certificate is valid for five years and may be
renewed upon satisfactory completion of a recertification training course that is
approved by DHS.
This bill requires that a person pass a written examination on food protection
practices that is approved by DHS to renew a certificate of food protection practices.
The bill also authorizes DHS to promulgate an emergency rule establishing criteria
for approving an examination for certificate renewal without providing evidence that
an emergency rule is necessary for the preservation of the public peace, health,
safety, or welfare and without making a finding of emergency.
