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:

This rule is adopted pursuant to authority granted by the Chief Procurement Officer of the Division of Purchasing of the Department of Administrative Services under Section 63-56-10, and pursuant to Section 67-5-5, and the Utah Procurement Code (Title 63, Chapter 56) and the applicable sections thereof, viz., Sections 63-56-1, -2, -4, -5, -16, -17, -18, -19., -20.5, -21, -22, -23, -24, -25, -26, -27, -28., -29, -30, -32, -33, -34, -40, -41, -45, -46, -47, -48, -49, and -50.

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 written comments have been received.

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

This rule is adopted to allow the Attorney General to obtain the services of outside counsel, expert witnesses, or providers of litigation support services for agencies of the State without having to go through the Division of Purchasing in recognition of the overlapping jurisdiction in this area under the Utah Constitution and applicable statutes and the unique needs of the Attorney General in obtaining these professional services. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
