Removing authority of Agriculture Commissioner to increase certain fees by rules or regulations

HB 2114 repeals West Virginia Code §19-1-4b, which previously allowed the Agriculture Commissioner to increase certain agricultural fees through rules or regulations. This bill directly affects the Agriculture Commissioner, who would no longer have the authority to adjust these fees via administrative rules, and the agricultural businesses or individuals paying those fees. The key mechanism is the removal of this statutory provision, requiring any future fee changes to go through the full legislative process instead of administrative rulemaking. The bill does not create new fees or alter existing fee structures, only changing how fee adjustments can be implemented.
