This bill amends and reenacts section 64-9-1 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, to authorize the Board of Pharmacy to promulgate a legislative rule concerning the Uniform Controlled Substances Act. Specifically, it acknowledges the legislative rule that was filed in the State Register on August 29, 2024, and subsequently modified to address the concerns of the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee before being refiled on October 16, 2024.

The bill aims to streamline the process for the Board of Pharmacy to implement regulations related to controlled substances, ensuring that the rules are in compliance with state law and responsive to legislative oversight. The text indicates that this section is new, and therefore, there are no deletions or existing legal language being modified.
