Section 9.206. Effective date of regulation

The proposed regulation referred to in a regulatory review report may contain a provision making the regulation operative at a time later than the date on which the regulation would otherwise take effect. In the absence of such a provision, the effective date of the approval of the regulation is:

(1) The date of approval of the last of the two houses to act, upon approval of the regulation by the General Assembly; or

(2) The date of the expiration of the 30-day period after the delivery of the regulation to both houses, upon failure of the General Assembly to approve or disapprove the regulation prior thereto.
