§ 834. Periodic review of rules and forms
(a) Upon written request to an agency by the Legislative Committee on Administrative Rules,
a rule or part of a rule that has not been adopted, readopted, or substantially amended
during the preceding six years shall expire one year from the date of the request.
However, this section does not prevent the agency from adopting the same or a similar
rule during that year.
(b) The Secretary of State shall review all forms used by agencies and affecting members
of the public and shall make recommendations for their simplification and consolidation.
Agencies shall provide the Secretary with information reasonably requested for this
purpose. The recommendations shall be sent to the agencies concerned and to the Chairs
of the Legislative Committee on Administrative Rules and of the Interagency Committee
on Administrative Rules. (Added 1981, No. 82, § 6.)
