NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF LEGISLATION submitted in accordance with Assembly Rule III, Sec 1(f)
 
BILL NUMBER: A10335
SPONSOR: Rules (Stern)
 
TITLE OF BILL:
An act to amend chapter 402 of the laws of 1994, amending the state
administrative procedure act relating to requiring certain agencies to
submit regulatory agendas for publication in the state register, in
relation to the effectiveness thereof
 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:
This bill extends provisions of law relating to requiring certain agen-
cies to submit regulatory agendas for publication in the state register.
 
SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS:
Section one extends
Section two sets forth the effective date.
 
JUSTIFICATION:
Regulatory agendas provide the public with advance notice of regulations
that are being developed or are under consideration by a state agency,
but which have not yet been formally proposed. Experience with the
provisions of SARA § 202-d in recent years has pointed out opportunities
to streamline its provisions to make it easier for state agencies to
provide the public with this valuable information.
Limiting the publication requirement to once per year and allowing
publication in any Register issue makes it easier for agencies to focus
on a single, comprehensive list of potential rules. An agency may still
provide additional supplements to the January publication by updating
the regulatory agenda on its website.
 
PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:
New bill.
 
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS FOR STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:
None.
 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
Immediately
STATE OF NEW YORK
