What This Bill Does

This rules resolution modifies the duties of a House standing committee.

Key Provisions

This resolution:

  • defines terms;
  • when considering legislation that proposes to make an occupation a regulated occupation, requires a House standing committee to determine whether the Office of Professional Licensure Review conducted a sunrise review of the occupation; and
  • makes technical and conforming changes.

Plain-Language Summary

AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.

When the Utah House of Representatives considers legislation that would create a new licensing requirement for a profession or trade, this resolution requires House standing committees to first check whether the Office of Professional Licensure Review — a state office that evaluates whether occupational licensing is necessary and appropriate — has already conducted a formal "sunrise review" of that occupation. This adds a procedural step to the committee's existing duties, which already include verifying that legislation has an approved fiscal note before it can be considered.
