Insurance Department--Objections and Procedure for Hearings on Reports of Examination;
Regulation No. 11-155 (#2642)On September 28, 2007, the Independent Regulatory Review Commission (Commission) received this regulation from the Insurance Department. This rulemaking deletes 31 Pa. Code, Chapter 58 (Chapter 58). Notice of proposed rulemaking was omitted for this regulation; it will become effective upon publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.
Chapter 58 specifies procedures for filing objections and conducting hearings related to Department examination reports. Act 177 of 1992 established specific statutory procedures to challenge the Department's examination reports and thus superseded Chapter 58 of the Department's regulation.
We have determined this regulation is consistent with the statutory authority of the Insurance Department (71 P. S. § 186 and 40 P. S. § 323.5) and the intention of the General Assembly. Having considered all of the other criteria of the Regulatory Review Act, we find promulgation of this regulation is in the public interest.
By Order of the Commission:
This regulation is approved.

This rulemaking amends 4 Pa. Code Chapter 89. Notice of proposed rulemaking was omitted for this regulation; it will become effective upon publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.
This regulation revises and updates Chapter 89 to bring it into consistency with recent amendments to the Emergency and Law Enforcement Personnel Death Benefits Act (53 P. S. §§ 891--892.1).

Code § 1.191) and the intention of the General Assembly. Having considered all of the other criteria of the Regulatory Review Act, we find promulgation of this regulation is in the public interest.

This regulation is approved.
