SECTION 91.71. Scope of Rule Review  


Latest version.
  • (a) The Government Code, §2001.039, concerning Agency Review of Existing Rules, directs state agencies to develop plans to review their rules and to determine, at a minimum, whether the reasons for adopting the rules still exist.

    (b) The procedures in this subchapter are discretionary, permitting agencies to distinguish rule review from rulemaking. These procedures provide the Texas Register with the information necessary to track rule review status. Agencies may determine to follow these procedures to comply with the notice requirements of the Government Code, §2001.039. We will track and report agency rule review documents only if they are published in accordance with this subchapter.
