The bill S. 164 proposes amendments to Section 1-23-120 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, which governs the requirements and procedures for state agency regulations. The key change involves tolling the period of legislative review from the second Friday in May through the second Monday in January, effectively pausing the review process during this timeframe. Additionally, the bill establishes a specific legislative review period of one hundred thirteen days for regulations filed on January 14, 2025.

This legislation aims to clarify the timeline for legislative review of regulations, ensuring that the review process is consistent and predictable. The bill will take effect upon approval by the Governor, thereby allowing for immediate implementation of the new review periods as outlined.
