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:

Title 15, Chapter 9, provides for the registration of athlete agents. Subsections 15-9-103(1)(a) and (b) provide that the Division may adopt and enforce rules to administer Title 15, Chapter 9, with respect to athlete agents. This rule was enacted to clarify the provisions of Title 15, Chapter 9, with respect to athlete agents.

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

Since the rule was last reviewed in March 2011, the Division has received no written comments with respect to this rule.

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

This rule should be continued as it provides a mechanism to inform potential registrants of the requirements for registration as allowed under statutory authority provided in Title 15, Chapter 9, with respect to athlete agents. The rule should also be continued as it provides information to ensure applicants for registration meet minimum requirements and provides registrants with information concerning unprofessional conduct, definitions and ethical standards relating to the profession.
