• Jurisdiction: North Dakota
• Title 28: Judicial Procedure, Civil
• Ch. 28-32: Administrative Agencies Practice Act

Text

1. Upon request by the administrative rules committee, an administrative agency or the
commission shall brief the committee on its existing rules and point out any provisions
that appear to be obsolete and any areas in which statutory or constitutional authority
has changed or been repealed since the rules were adopted or amended.
2. An agency or the commission may amend or repeal a rule without complying with the
other requirements of this chapter relating to adoption of rules and may resubmit the
change to the legislative council for publication provided:
a. The agency or commission initiates the request to the administrative rules
committee for consideration of the amendment or repeal;
b. The agency or commission provides notice to the regulated community, in a
manner reasonably calculated to provide notice to those persons interested in the
rule, of the time and place the administrative rules committee will consider the
request for amendment or repeal of the rule; and
c. The agency or commission and the administrative rules committee agree the rule
amendment or repeal eliminates a provision that is obsolete or no longer in
compliance with law and that no detriment would result to the substantive rights
of the regulated community from the amendment or repeal.
