RULE NO.:RULE TITLE:

6A-6.012Plans of Organization and Administration of Local Adult General Education Program

PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose is to repeal Rule 6A-6.012, F.A.C. The effect is to remove a rule from the Florida Administrative Code that contains outdated terms and requirements and for which numerous statutory provisions exist authorizing the operation and administration of adult general education programs in school districts and Florida College System institutions.

SUMMARY: This repeal is necessary because the rulemaking authority is neither current nor correct and the law implemented is neither current nor correct. This rule contains outdated terms and provisions that are no longer required or useful. Numerous statutory provisions exist authorizing the operation and administration of adult general education programs in school districts and Florida College System institutions. These provisions are contained in ss. 1001.41(3), 1001.42, 1001.44, 1004.02, 1004.65(6)(b), 1004.93, 1004.98, 1011.80(2), Florida Statutes.

SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION: The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the Agency.

The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: There is no associated cost or financial impact made with the repeal of this rule.

Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
