Rules and Regulations - Approval, Editing, and Drafting
As provided by statute, proposed rules and regulations must be submitted to the
Secretary of Administration for approval as to their organization, style, orthography, and
grammar. This task is handled by the Office of Chief Counsel. Additionally, the Office of Chief Counsel may,
for a reasonable fee, provide editing services and draft rules and regulations for other
agencies.
Regulations Drafting and Editing Services
How does the editing service work?
- Send the regulations to the Office of Chief Counsel on diskette or as an e-mail attachment.
The Office of Chief Counsel is currently using Microsoft Word 2000. (Send documents adopted by reference
in hard copy.)
- After reviewing the regulation in the normal manner, our editor will consult with
you by phone about the types of changes to be made and the expected length of time.
- We will key in the changes and provide a copy for your review so that
you can be sure that none of the revisions inadvertently changed your meaning.
- We will deliver a fully edited, stamped copy to the Attorney General's Office.
- In other words, you get a fully approved copy of your regulations with only *one*
trip downtown to pick them up from the Attorney General's Office.
What is the cost for the editing service?
- There is an hourly fee of $20.00, with a minimum charge of $20.00. Before
beginning, we will propose a maximum fee that we will not exceed without your prior
authorization.
How does the drafting service work?
- Send any drafts or directions to the Office of Chief Counsel on diskette or as an e-mail
attachment.
- After reviewing the materials, our staff members will visit with you regarding
any questions about the drafts.
- We will provide a copy for your review so that you can be sure that the
regulations and related documents are consistent with your intent.
- We will deliver a fully edited, stamped copy to the Attorney General's Office.
