OCCUPATIONAL LICENSING – Amends existing law to revise duties of the Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses.

RS31319 / H0724

This bill limits fund balances for boards and commissions within the Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses (DOPL) to 150% of the five-year average of annual expenditures. This legislation is necessary to ensure licensees are not overcharged. Additionally, the bill narrows the rulemaking authority of the Division Administrator to ensure transparency and consistency with the Occupational Licensing Reform Act. The bill consolidates all definitions into one definition section. The bill requires a one-time report to the Idaho Legislature on board and commission compliance with the Occupational Licensing Reform Act.

This legislation will have no impact on the states General fund or any dedicated fund or federal fund. The legislation does not add any fee schedules to the Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses dedicated fund.
