In 2024, the Idaho Legislature passed legislation that impacts the rules process. H 563, among other things, requires agencies to consider moving rules to statute if there is a benefit to having all related requirements in a single location and there are not frequent changes to the rules. In addition, H 626 changes how the courts shall interpret laws or rules by removing the deference to agency’s interpretation. The legislation responds to the law by moving significant parts of rule into statute. This legislation does not make any changes to the unemployment insurance program it simply moves existing rule into statute.
