2023 House Concurrent Resolution 11

A concurrent resolution to authorize the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules to meet during the interim between sessions to consider waiving session days.

Whereas, Section 35 of the Administrative Procedures Act of 1969, MCL 24.235, creates the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules. That section provides that the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules “may meet . . . during an interim between sessions”; and

Whereas, Under section 45a of the Administrative Procedures Act of 1969, MCL 24.245a, the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules has 15 session days in which to consider a proposed rule after receiving a notice of transmittal from an agency proposing a rule under section 45(2), MCL 24.245(2). However, the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules may waive any remaining session days under section 45a(1)(d); now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That, pursuant to section 35 of the Administrative Procedures Act of 1969, the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules is authorized to meet during the interim between sessions to consider waiving session days pursuant to section 45a(1)(d).
