    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 58, Chapter 41, provides for the licensure of speech-language pathologists and audiologists. Subsection 58-1-106(1)(a) provides that the Division may adopt and enforce rules to administer Title 58. Subsection 58-41-6(3) provides that the Speech-Language Pathologist and Audiologist Licensing Board's duties and responsibilities shall be in accordance with Section 58-1-202. Subsection 58-1-202(1)(a) provides that one of the duties of each board is to recommend appropriate rules to the division director. This rule was enacted to clarify the provisions of Title 58, Chapter 41, with respect to speech-language pathologists and audiologists.

    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 April 2002, the Division has received no written comments with respect to the 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 licensees of the requirements for licensure as allowed under statutory authority provided in Title 58, Chapter 41, with respect to speech-language pathologists and audiologists. The rule should also be continued as it provides information to ensure applicants for licensure are adequately trained and meet minimum licensure requirements.
