SB 77 Kansas Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Requiring state agencies to provide notice of revocation of administrative rules and regulations to the public and removing abolished and inactive state agencies from the agency review requirement.

SB 77 requires Kansas state agencies to provide public notice before revoking administrative rules, including written notice to affected businesses and local governments, and holding public hearings if requested. It also mandates agencies to get attorney general approval and submit revocation notices to a legislative committee before proceeding. The bill removes specific abolished or inactive agencies (like the Kansas Bureau of Investigation and Agricultural Labor Relations Board) from the mandatory five-year review requirement for rules. This streamlines administrative processes while ensuring transparency for stakeholders impacted by rule changes.
