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:

Section 62A-11-107 authorizes the Office of Recovery Services (ORS) to adopt, amend, and enforce rules as necessary. In addition, Sections 62A-1-117 and 78A-6-1106 authorizes child support to be assigned to the Department of Human Services (DHS) when a child is placed in the custody or care of the State of Utah for at least 30 days and designates ORS as the payee for the department for such child support payments.

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 comments have been received since the last five-year review of the 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 necessary to continue this rule to provide information regarding ORS' enforcement of a child support obligation that is assigned to the state when a child is placed in the custody or care of the state or with an individual other than the parent for at least 30 days. In addition, the rule explains that ORS will continue to collect child support payable to the state that accrued up to the point that parental rights were terminated for child who was in the care or custody of the State of Utah.
