SB 232 West Virginia Senate · 2025 Regular Session

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

SB 232 repeals the provision allowing the West Virginia Agriculture Commissioner to increase certain fees through administrative rules or regulations. This change means the Commissioner can no longer adjust these specific fees via rulemaking, requiring any future fee increases to be approved by the state legislature instead. The bill directly affects the Commissioner's regulatory authority and the process for modifying agricultural-related fees. It does not alter current fee levels but shifts decision-making power to the legislature.
