Argument forThe authorization could let the department adopt permanent rules for the listed fees and registrations, giving it a way to set rules for those charges.
Argument againstIf the department adopted these rules, people paying the covered charges might face changed fees or registration costs, but the bill text does not say what they would be.

The rules are K.A.R. 115-2-2 and 115-2-3, concerning fees, registrations, and other charges. The authorization applies to the proposed rules identified in the department's economic impact statement. If enacted, the proposal would have taken effect after publication in the Kansas Register.
