Act No. 89 (H.550). Executive branch; legislature; administrative rules; emergency rules

An act relating to the Vermont administrative procedure act

This act allows an agency to withdraw an emergency rule following an objection to the emergency rule by the legislative committee on administrative rules (LCAR). Upon the emergency rule's withdrawal, any existing rule that was amended by that emergency rule would revert to its original form, as though the emergency rule had never been adopted.

Moreover, this act authorizes LCAR by majority vote to request that a standing committee of the legislature review a final proposed rule, without affecting the review or review period of the final proposed rule.
