The following constitutes the reasons for this bill and the purposes which are sought to be
accomplished thereby:
LB366 amends §84-901 and §84-901.04 to establish the Legislative Economic Analysis Unit
within the Legislature. The bill requires that any rule or regulation projected to have an
economic impact of one million dollars or more over five years undergo a regulatory impact
analysis before it can take effect. It also mandates that agencies submit cost-benefit analyses,
job impact projections, and other relevant data for legislative review. Additionally, LB366
establishes a sixty-day waiting period for major rules unless approved by the Legislature
and provides judicial review procedures for determining whether a rule qualifies as a major
regulation.
