BILL NUMBER: S2210

SPONSOR: TEDISCO
 
TITLE OF BILL:

An act to amend the state administrative procedure act, in relation to
legislative approval of certain proposed rules

 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

This legislation is designed to provide the Legislature with foreknow-
ledge of rules or regulations adopted by state agencies, departments,
and authorities which implement legislative action. In too many cases,
regulations thwart the legislative intent either going beyond or falling
short of legislative goals. This legislation would require approval of
all rules and regulations prior to their implementation.

 
SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS:

Section 1. This act shall be known and may be cited as "the regulatory
ratification act."

The state administrative procedure act is amended by adding a new
Section 202-(f). This legislation would require that prior to the effec-
tive date of any rule or regulation promulgated by any state agency,
department, or authority, such rules or regulations must be approved by
the standing committee of both the New York State Senate and Assembly
having jurisdiction over the subject matter.

 
EFFECTS OF PRESENT LAW THAT THIS BILL WOULD ALTER:

Presently, state administrative agencies are not required to submit
proposed rules and regulations for legislative approval.
