Sec. 29-251a. Review of regulations. Report. As used in this section, "program
requirements" means any program or part of a program which is required by law. The
Commissioner of Public Safety, in consultation with the Codes and Standards Committee, shall conduct a review of existing regulations of each state agency to determine
whether any provision of such regulations conflicts with the State Building Code or the
State Fire Safety Code. The commissioner shall make recommendations to the department head of any state agency which has regulations that are in conflict with the State
Building Code or the State Fire Safety Code for the amendment of such regulations so
they no longer are in conflict with said codes. Not later than ninety days following
receipt of such recommendations, the department head of such state agency shall initiate
the process under chapter 54 to amend or repeal such regulation in order to bring such
regulation into compliance with the State Building Code or the State Fire Safety Code,
as the case may be, unless the amendment or repeal of such regulation would result in
a conflict with the applicable agency's program requirements. The Commissioner of
Public Safety, in consultation with the Codes and Standards Committee, shall report
such recommendations to the joint standing committee of the General Assembly having
cognizance of matters relating to public safety.
