The bill amends existing laws regarding occupational licensing in Kansas, introducing new definitions and requirements for agencies that oversee these licenses. It defines "material change" as a significant modification affecting the nature or obligations of an occupational license and clarifies that "agency" does not include certain healthcare regulatory boards. The bill mandates that any occupational license requirement in effect as of July 1, 2025, will terminate five years later unless the legislature acts to continue it. Additionally, it requires agencies to submit annual reports detailing the status and regulations of each occupational license under their jurisdiction.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that any new occupational license or material change to an existing license proposed by an agency after July 1, 2025, must receive legislative approval before taking effect. This includes a review process by relevant legislative committees, which will assess the necessity and implications of the proposed changes. The bill aims to enhance oversight and accountability in occupational licensing, ensuring that such requirements serve the public welfare without imposing unnecessary restrictions.
