House Bill 401 (2021) requires the Florida Building Commission to establish criteria for the suspension of approved product evaluation entities. Prior to this legislation, such entities were approved solely by specific inclusion in the statute, and due to their statutory nature they were excluded from the rule-based disciplinary provisions of 61G20-3.013, F.A.C., which were already in place for other types of product approval-related entities. The Commission intends to remove the exemption for product evaluation entities from the rule in order to bring it into conformance with the requirements of House Bill 401 (2021).
