Rulemaking related to agency procedure for rulemaking
The Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing hereby rescinds Chapter 7, “Agency Procedure for Rule Making,” Iowa Administrative Code.
Legal Authority for Rulemaking
This rulemaking is adopted under the authority provided in Iowa Code section 17A.3 and Executive Order 10 (January 10, 2023).
State or Federal Law Implemented
This rulemaking implements, in whole or in part, Iowa Code chapter 17A.
Purpose and Summary
This rulemaking eliminates unnecessary and unreasonably duplicative language and rules in the Iowa Administrative Code. The boards’ realignment with the Department as a result of 2023 Iowa Acts, Senate File 514, allows the boards to rely on 481—Chapter 4, which is substantively analogous to the current 645—Chapter 7. The rulemaking aligns with Executive Order 10’s goal of reducing and simplifying the Iowa Administrative Code to make it easier for Iowans to enter the workforce.

Fiscal Impact

Licensing fees go to the Fund to cover operations of the regulated professional licensing boards.
Jobs Impact
After analysis and review of this rulemaking, there will be a positive impact on jobs in Iowa since the rulemaking reduces the regulatory burdens on Iowans and allows Iowans to more freely engage in individual and business pursuits.
Waivers
