The proposed bill aims to modernize and streamline Arizona's regulatory framework by repealing several state boards, councils, and commissions that are considered unnecessary, such as the Arizona Iceberg Lettuce Research Council and the Barbering and Cosmetology Board. This repeal is intended to reduce bureaucratic overhead and enhance operational independence, particularly allowing the Homeopathic Board to hire its own executive director. Additionally, the bill introduces new definitions related to the cosmetic industry and prohibits the Arizona Supreme Court and the Administrative Office of the Courts from hiring contract lobbyists, reflecting a broader effort to reduce regulatory burdens.
In terms of specific updates to current statutes, the bill would repeal multiple titles and articles, including Title 3, Chapter 3, Article 4.2, and Title 32, Chapter 39, while amending various sections to clarify definitions and streamline processes. It modifies provisions related to fees, penalties, and operational requirements for agencies and professionals, such as updating the fee structure for service processes and clarifying licensing requirements for school bus operators. The bill also expands the definition of "agency" to include the Arizona Supreme Court and the Administrative Office of the Courts, ensuring that only state employees may lobby on behalf of certain agencies, and updates the list of sections requiring fingerprint background checks to reflect current practices.
