A. Article V of the Oklahoma Constitution vests in the Legislature the power to make laws, and thereby to establish agencies and to designate agency functions, budgets and purposes. Article VI of the Oklahoma Constitution charges the Executive Branch of Government with the responsibility to implement all measures enacted by the Legislature. B. In creating agencies and designating their functions and purposes, the Legislature may delegate rulemaking authority to executive branch agencies to facilitate administration of legislative policy. The delegation of rulemaking authority is intended to eliminate the necessity of establishing every administrative aspect of general public policy by legislation. In so doing, however, the Legislature reserves to itself: 1. The right to retract any delegation of rulemaking authority unless otherwise precluded by the Oklahoma Constitution; 2. The right to establish any aspect of general policy by legislation, notwithstanding any delegation of rulemaking authority; 3. The right and responsibility to designate the method for rule promulgation, review, repeal and modification; 4. The right to approve or disapprove or repeal any adopted rule by joint resolution; and 5. The right to disapprove a proposed permanent, promulgated or emergency rule at any time if the Legislature determines such rule to be an imminent harm to the health, safety or welfare of the public or the state or if the Legislature determines that a rule is not consistent with legislative intent.
