The bill amends existing laws regarding administrative rules and regulations in Kansas, specifically K.S.A. 2024 Supp. 77-426 and 77-440. It requires state agencies to provide notice of revocation for rules and regulations, ensuring that any revocation process includes notifying affected businesses and the public, as well as obtaining necessary approvals from the attorney general and the joint committee on administrative rules and regulations. The bill also stipulates that the revocation of a rule will take effect 15 days after its publication in the Kansas register.

Additionally, the bill removes certain abolished or inactive state agencies from the five-year review requirement for rules and regulations. It amends the reporting requirements for state agencies, specifying which agencies must submit reports to the joint committee on administrative rules and regulations every five years. The bill repeals the existing sections of K.S.A. 2024 Supp. 77-426 and 77-440, thereby updating the legal framework governing the review and revocation of administrative rules in Kansas.
