Summary
The General Assembly, over the years, has delegated authority to State agencies to adopt and amend rules and regulations which have the force of law and which subject those regulated to civil and criminal penalties and other sanctions. To assure that rules and regulations are properly adopted or amended and to satisfy statutory purposes, it is important that there be transparency, and that those proposing rules and regulations properly assess the economic and other impacts and benefits resulting from implementation of their proposals. The preparation of regulatory impact statements as part of the rule making process will further that purpose. This bill will also provide to the members of the General Assembly having oversight responsibilities valuable information on an ongoing basis regarding the adoption or amendment of rules and regulations by the covered agencies. The requirements of this legislation are similar to those imposed on federal agencies adopting or amending federal rules and regulations.
Title
An Act To Amend Title 29 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Regulatory Flexibility Act To Provide For Legislative Oversight And Transparency Regarding The Adoption Of Rules And Regulations By State Agencies.
