IDAHO ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE ACT – Adds to existing law to establish provisions regarding expiration on rulemaking authority.

This bill (H 218) requires Idaho state agencies to create all necessary rules implementing new laws within 10 years of those laws taking effect. It directly affects agencies responsible for translating statutes into regulations, specifically for laws passed on or after July 1, 2025. After the 10-year deadline, agencies can only create new rules if the legislature amends the original law or passes a new law granting rulemaking authority, and they must act within two years of that change. The law takes effect on July 1, 2025, and aims to ensure timely regulatory implementation while preventing indefinite rulemaking authority.
