Kansas Rules & Regulations–Economic Impact Statement for the Division of the Budget

The 2024 Legislature enacted HB 2648 that made various changes to the process for the adoption of administrative rules and regulations by state agencies.  The law generally prohibits the adoption of any rule or regulation that the economic impact statement indicates $1.0 million or more in implementation or compliance costs that are reasonably expected to be incurred by or passed along to businesses, local governments, or individuals during the initial five-year period following the adoption of the rule or regulation, unless the rule or regulation has been ratified by the Legislature by the enactment of a bill.  This requirement would not apply to temporary rules and regulations, rules and regulations proposed because of a federal mandate, or rules and regulations of the Kansas Agricultural Remediation Board.  The text of the law can be found here and the supplemental note from the Kansas Legislative Research Department can be found here.  The changes will become effective upon publication of the statute book (July 1, 2024).
