The bill was reorganized and updated to include additional administrative regulations under review. The original version focused on three specific regulations, while the current version expands this to seven regulations covering mental health services, credit union conduct, and other administrative rules.

The bill's scope was expanded from covering three administrative regulations to seven, adding new regulations related to credit unions and additional definitions to the oversight list.

Added two new administrative regulations (405 KAR 10:001 and 405 KAR 10:015) to the list of regulations under review.

Added a third regulation (808 KAR 3:050) covering the conduct of credit unions to the oversight list.
