AR HB1302

Establishes the "Red Tape Reduction Collective Rulemaking Act of 2019" to create an expedited procedure for occupational licensing entities to collectively submit proposed, amended, or repealed rules responsive to legislation.

Allows state agencies or General Assembly members to request that multiple proposed rules filed with the Legislative Council regarding the same enacted legislation be grouped together and reviewed as a single group.

Grouped rules may be reviewed and approved by the Legislative Council, its Administrative Rules and Regulations Subcommittee, the Joint Budget Committee, or the Administrative Rule and Regulation Review Subcommittee.

Permits agencies to publish a combined public notice for all grouped rules and may hold a joint public hearing when required by law or desired by the agencies.

Allows the Legislative Council or appropriate subcommittees to separate grouped rules if requested by any General Assembly member or involved state agency, and to approve one or more of the separated rules individually.
