CT SB00257

Requires each state agency to post its regulations on its Internet website, with regulations published on or after October 1, 2012 to be posted by that date and all other effective regulations to be posted by January 1, 2013.

Mandates agencies to certify that posted regulations match the content filed with the Secretary of the State and to display this certification on their website.

Maintains existing requirements for agencies to make regulations available for inspection and copying at their main offices and for the Commission on Official Legal Publications to publish regulations in compilations and the Connecticut Law Journal.

Allows the Commission to omit certain regulations from publication if they are incorporated by reference from federal or other state agencies, are too expensive to publish, or would be unduly cumbersome, with notices identifying omitted regulations and providing contact information for obtaining copies.

Takes effect October 1, 2012 and amends General Statutes Section 4-173.
