The State Medical Board of Ohio (SMBO) has filed proposed rules with the Common Sense Initiative (CSI) Office that are available for your comments.
A state rule-making agency may propose to adopt a new rule, amend or rescind an existing rule, or propose to continue a rule without any changes. Executive Order 2011-01K and Sections 107.62 and 121.82, Ohio Revised Code, require state agencies to draft rules in collaboration with stakeholders, assess and justify any adverse impact on the business community, and provide an opportunity for the affected public to provide input on the proposed rules. The Business Impact Analysis for the proposed rules discusses the purpose of the rule and identifies the nature of the adverse impact on licensees. The CSI review must be completed before the rules can begin the formal rule-making process through the Joint Committee on Agency Rule Review.
At this time, public comment is being sought on the proposed actions of Chapter 4731-32: Medical Marijuana. The proposed rules and the CSI Business Impact Analysis can be found on the SMBO website.
Comments on the proposed rules must be received no later than Friday, April 7. Please send comments to the SMBO and to the CSI Office.
If you have questions, please contact SMBO Director of Communication Tessie Pollock.
