RULE APPROVAL – SENATE STATE AFFAIRS COMMITTEE – States findings of the Legislature and provides that all temporary and pending rules of the Idaho State Police, the Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses, the Idaho Public Utilities Commission, the Idaho Secretary of State, the Department of Administration, and the Idaho State Lottery have been reviewed and approved by the Senate State Affairs Committee, with exceptions.

This Senate Resolution (SR 101) approves most temporary and pending rules from six Idaho state agencies - including the State Police, Public Utilities Commission, and Secretary of State - after review by the Senate State Affairs Committee. It specifically excludes two utility customer relations rules (IDAPA 31.21.01 and 31.41.01) from approval. The resolution formalizes the committee’s review process under Idaho Code, confirming all other listed rules are approved for implementation. It does not create new laws but confirms existing rules meet legislative review standards.
