HOUSE BILL No. 5745

 

February 22, 2006, Introduced by Rep. Shaffer and referred to the Committee on Government Operations.

 

     A bill to amend 1978 PA 368, entitled

 

"Public health code,"

 

by amending section 2233 (MCL 333.2233), as amended by 1996 PA 67.

 

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:

 

     Sec. 2233.  (1)  The department may promulgate rules necessary

 

or appropriate to implement and carry out the duties or functions

 

vested by law in the department. A rule promulgated under this act

 

or an exception to a rule promulgated under this act shall not

 

discriminate in favor of or against any provider, facility, or

 

employer licensed under this code based upon the presence of, or

 

lack of, a collective bargaining agreement with employees.

 

     (2) If the Michigan supreme court rules that sections 45 and

 

46 of the administrative procedures act of 1969, Act No. 306 of the


 

Public Acts of 1969, being sections 24.245 and 24.246 of the

 

Michigan Compiled Laws, are unconstitutional, and a statute

 

requiring legislative review of administrative rules is not enacted

 

within 90 days after the Michigan supreme court ruling, the

 

department shall not promulgate rules under this act.
