State occupational licensing rules for four professions would change under this bill. If passed, this measure would eliminate Utah's state licensing or certification requirements for commercial interior designers, court reporters, polygraph examiners and other deception detection practitioners, and music therapists, removing the state laws that currently set qualifications, renewal terms, exemptions, and disciplinary rules for these occupations. The bill also removes court reporters from the state's mandatory criminal background check list and drops the requirement that court reporters be state-certified in order to serve as officers of the court, while making related technical updates to state procurement law definitions and to criminal investigation subpoena procedures used by prosecutors.
