Mike Moyle — Mike Moyle presented RS 33807, explaining that it concerns legislative rules and the rules coordinator currently housed in the Department of Financial Management. He argued that the coordinator should be under legislative rather than executive control, using a daycare rulemaking example to illustrate how the executive branch can act without clear statutory authority. He also described the existing eight-year rule review process as a waste of time and said the proposal would shift the coordinator from the executive branch to the legislative branch without changing the underlying agency hearing or rule-drafting process. He then concluded his remarks and stood for questions before the committee proceeded to vote on RS 33807.
