The bill amends existing laws regarding occupational licensing in Kansas, introducing new definitions and requirements for agencies that oversee these licenses. It defines "agency" to include various state departments but excludes certain healthcare regulatory boards. A new term, "material change," is introduced to describe significant modifications to occupational licenses. The bill mandates that any occupational license requirement in effect as of July 1, 2025, will automatically terminate five years later unless the legislature acts to continue it. Additionally, any new occupational license or significant changes to existing licenses adopted after this date will require legislative approval before taking effect.

Furthermore, the bill requires each agency to submit an annual report detailing the occupational licenses under its jurisdiction, including information on current holders, regulations, and any federal mandates. It also establishes a process for legislative review of new or materially changed occupational licenses, ensuring that a standing committee evaluates the necessity and implications of such changes. The bill aims to enhance oversight and accountability in occupational licensing, ensuring that requirements serve public welfare without imposing unnecessary burdens.
