Bill > SF160

This bill amends the existing law to change how the licensing fees collected by the Board of Educational Examiners are handled. The key provisions are: 1. It removes the requirement for the Board to deposit 25% of the licensing fees collected into the state's general fund, allowing the Board to retain and appropriate all of the fees for activities related to its duties. 2. It requires the Board to reduce the licensing fees by at least 25% for the 2017-2018 fiscal year. 3. It allows the Board to adopt emergency rules to implement the fee reduction and other provisions of the bill, which would take effect immediately upon filing. 4. The bill takes effect upon enactment, recognizing the importance of these changes.
