NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Section 62A-11-107 gives the Office of Recovery Services (ORS) the authority to carry out its responsibilities under state law. Section 62A-11-104 gives ORS the authority to provide child support services to individuals if the office has received an application for child support services, the state has provided public assistance, or a child lives outside of the home in the protective custody, temporary custody, or custody or care of the state. These services include the distribution of collected child support money to a payee.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

No comments have been received during or since the last five-year review.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

The rule is necessary because of the laws that require ORS to collect and disburse collected child support money to the appropriate payee can sometime result in a lost, stolen, or forged check. The rule provides ORS with the procedures and process for assisting the payee in reissuing a warrant, if appropriate, when a check is lost, stolen, or forged. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
