The bill amends Section 23-27.3-109.1 of the General Laws in Chapter 23-27.3, which pertains to the State Building Code. It establishes the committee's rule-making authority and requires the committee to adopt codes and standards without the need for approval from a legislative regulation committee, which is being repealed. The bill eliminates provisions that previously mandated legislative oversight of the codes and standards adopted by the state building code standards committee. This change streamlines the process by allowing the codes to have the force and effect of law upon adoption by the committee, without further legislative review. The act will take effect immediately upon passage.
