HB 109 Louisiana House · 2024 Regular Session

ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE: Provides relative to the review of agency rules (EN NO IMPACT See Note)

HB 109 amends the administrative procedure law to clarify how public agencies review and respond to rules. The bill changes specific wording to ensure that agencies consider comments and petitions submitted since the beginning of a review period, rather than only those received during a specific timeframe. It also updates the language to explicitly list petitions, submissions, and comments as separate items requiring agency attention. These technical adjustments aim to improve clarity in how government agencies handle public input on rulemaking.
