SUMMARY: Rules 55-12.001, 55-12.002, 55-12.003, 55-12.004, 55-12.005, 55-12.008, F.A.C., are repealed.

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: The facts and circumstances that justify repeal have been prompted by the annual review and analysis by the Florida Department of Veterans’ Affairs General Counsel and approval by the Office of Fiscal Accountability and Regulatory Reform, requiring immediate repeal of unnecessary rules.

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.
