2004 House Bill 6337 ↩

Senate Roll Call 943: Passed

To establish that the Michigan Public Service Commission (MPSC) has the authority to make rules regarding telecommunication issues, after a recent Court of Appeals case ruling interpreted an existing statute to mean that this authority does not exist. The bill only extends MPSC's rulemaking authority to July 1, 2005, and does not grant authority to enforce certain loss of service complaint penalty rules. It is expected that the legislature will revisit this issue before July 1, 2005.
