What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, before a state agency may submit a proposed administrative rule to the legislative council staff for review, the agency must prepare an economic impact analysis for the proposed rule. The economic impact analysis must contain, among other things, an analysis of the actual and quantifiable benefits of the proposed rule, including an assessment of how effective the proposed rule will be in addressing the policy problem that the rule is intended to address. This bill, in addition, requires an economic impact analysis to include an assessment of the impact that the proposed rule will have on public health and the environment.
