What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

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.
