The bill H.472 relates to the regulation of professions and occupations by the Office of Professional Regulation. It includes several amendments, notably changing the designation of a position from "exempt" to "classified" in Section 12. Additionally, it removes Sections 14-18 entirely and renumbers the remaining sections accordingly. The effective dates of the act are also revised, specifying that the act will take effect on July 1, 2025, with the exception of Section 3 regarding fees for peer support providers, which will take effect on July 1, 2027.

Furthermore, the bill introduces a new section (Sec. 1a) that mandates the Secretary of State to submit a report by December 1, 2025. This report will detail the revenues generated from optional services through data sales, as authorized by existing law, and will include information on the categories of data sold. This addition aims to enhance transparency regarding the financial aspects of data sales related to the Office of Professional Regulation.
