This bill amends and reenacts section 64-9-1 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, to authorize the Attorney General to promulgate a legislative rule concerning the administration of preneed burial contracts. The bill specifically references a legislative rule that was previously filed in the State Register on May 27, 1988, and is authorized under the authority of 47-14-9 of the code.
A significant addition to this bill is the introduction of a new subsection 1.10, which establishes a sunset provision stating that the rule will terminate and have no further force or effect on August 1, 2036. This provision ensures that the rule will be reviewed and potentially re-evaluated before its expiration date.
