Introduced
by
To require that the professional licenses required before an individual may practice any one of dozens of occupations requiring licensure be either granted or denied within six months of filing an application. The state would have to notify an applicant within 10 days if an application requires additional information or is not “administratively complete.” If the deadline is not met, the application fee would be waived, and the applicant would be granted a 15-percent discount on fees required in the following year. The bill is part of a permit streamlining package comprised of Senate bills 1207 to 1236, and House Bills 5876 to 5904.
Referred to the Committee on Economic Development, Small Business, and Regulatory Reform
Reported without amendment
With the recommendation that the substitute (S-1) be adopted and that the bill then pass.
Substitute offered
To replace the previous version of the bill with one that decreases the period allowed for processing a license to 90 days, increases the period allowed for determining that an application is “administratively complete” from 10 days to 30 days, and streamlines the annual departmental reports proposed by the bill.
