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:

Under Subsection 31A-2-201(3), the commissioner is given the authority to write rules to implement the provisions of Title 31A. Under Section 31A-22-201.1, the commissioner is given the authority to regulate the filing of rates, forms, and reports and under Subsection 31A-2-202(2), the commissioner can prescribe the forms to be used in filing reports. As a result of these code references, this rule sets forth filing requirements, procedures, and forms to be used in the filing of forms for various types of annuity products.

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

The department has received no written comments in the past five years regarding this rule.

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

It is important that this rule be continued in force to allow the department to provide uniformity among life and annuity insurance companies in the United States. It allows for uniformity in how a company filing is made and the information and documents to be included, which then allows for a uniform review of these forms by the department.
