Subcommittees for review of administrative rules — Meetings regarding rules.

For the purposes of review of proposed administrative rules pursuant to chapter 52, title 67, Idaho Code, germane joint subcommittees are hereby authorized and created. The speaker of the house of representatives and the president pro tempore of the senate shall designate a subcommittee of each germane committee of each house for the consideration of proposed rules of the respective state agencies. The respective germane subcommittee of each house thus designated shall meet with the germane subcommittee of the other house and shall constitute the germane joint subcommittee. A subcommittee of each standing committee of each house shall be composed of the chairman of the committee, one (1) member of the majority party from the committee, appointed by the president pro tempore in the case of senate members, and by the speaker in the case of house members, and one (1) member of the minority party from the committee, appointed by the minority leader of the senate in the case of senate members, and by the minority leader of the house in the case of house members. If vacancies occur or exist in the majority party membership of the subcommittees of the senate, the president pro tempore shall appoint a replacement member; if vacancies occur or exist in the minority party membership of the subcommittees of the senate, the minority leader shall appoint a replacement member. If vacancies occur or exist in the majority party membership of the subcommittees of the house, the speaker shall appoint a replacement member; if vacancies occur or exist in the minority party membership of the subcommittees of the house, the minority leader shall appoint a replacement member. Meetings of a joint germane subcommittee shall be governed by the joint rules of the legislature; the chairmen shall sit as cochairmen.

Upon notice of intended action as provided in sections 67-5221 and 67-5223, Idaho Code, and transmission of analysis from the director of legislative services, the subcommittees may hold a meeting, which shall be held within forty-two (42) days of receipt of the analysis. A meeting may be called by the cochairmen or by two (2) or more members of the subcommittees giving oral or written notice to the legislative services office within fourteen (14) days of receipt of the analysis from the legislative services office. Upon a finding of the same objection by a majority of the members of the subcommittee of each house voting separately, an objection to a rule shall be transmitted to the agency with a concise statement of the reasons for the objection. A report of the joint subcommittee on each rule transmitted to it, including a finding that there is no objection to the rule or that an objection has been filed, shall be filed with the agency, transmitted to the membership of the germane standing committees, and submitted to the next regular session of the legislature.
