61J2-3.015: Notices of Satisfactory Course Completion
PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The rule amendments are to correct a grammatical error and to allow applicants to apply for licensure without requiring submission of a course completion report.
SUMMARY: The amendment to subsection (1) eliminates the requirement of providing a course completion report at the time of application, and corrects a grammatical error.
SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION:
The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the agency.
During discussion of this rule at its meeting, the Commission, based upon the expertise and experience of its members, determined that a Statement of Estimated Regulatory Costs (SERC) was not necessary. No person or interested party submitted additional information regarding the economic impact at that time. The Commission has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business, or likely increase regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within 1 year after implementation of the rule. These rule amendments will not require ratification by the Legislature.
The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein:
Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
