What This Bill Does

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

Key Provisions

This resolution:

  • defines terms;
  • when considering legislation that proposes to make an occupation a regulated occupation, requires a Senate 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 Senate considers any bill that would create a new licensed or regulated profession, this resolution requires the relevant Senate committee to first check whether the Office of Professional Licensure Review — a state office that evaluates whether new occupational licensing is actually necessary — has already conducted a formal "sunrise review" of that occupation. This adds a procedural checkpoint to the Senate's internal rules without changing state law directly.
