AI Summary
This bill authorizes the final adoption of parts of Chapter 33, a rule from the Department of Education and State Board of Education that governs the use of physical restraint and seclusion in schools. This rule is considered a "major substantive rule," meaning it has a significant impact on the rights and interests of the public and requires legislative review. The bill allows for the adoption of these portions of the rule, which have already been provisionally adopted and submitted to the Legislature for review under a specific state statute (Title 5, chapter 375, subchapter 2-A). The legislation includes an emergency clause, meaning it will take effect immediately upon approval.
