What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

This bill does all of the following:

1. Current law provides that an agency that is authorized to exercise discretion in deciding individual cases may formalize the general policies evolving from its decisions by promulgating those policies as rules. The bill requires an agency to promulgate rules describing how and when the agency will impose conditions on a license, permit, certificate, or other such approval that is granted by the agency. The agency must, under the bill, impose conditions on licenses in accordance with those rules.

2. Current law allows the governor, by executive order, to prescribe guidelines to ensure that rules are promulgated in accordance with the statutory rule-making process. The bill repeals this provision that allows the governor to prescribe such guidelines.
