The Board, at the discretion of the Commissioner, may use the services of a convenor.

005.01 A Board may employ or contract for an organization or an individual to serve as a convenor, or may use the services of a state employee to act as a convenor. A convenor shall not have a financial or other interest that would preclude him or her from serving in an impartial and independent manner. The Board shall determine whether a person under consideration as a convenor has such an interest. A person disqualified under this criterion shall be dropped from further consideration.

005.02 The convenor may assist the Board in making the determination of need for a negotiated rulemaking process discussed in section 004 above. The convenor may also assist the Board in:

005.02A Identifying persons who will be significantly affected by a proposed rule.

005.02B Conducting discussions with affected persons on the issues of concern and ascertaining whether the establishment of a negotiated rulemaking committee is feasible and appropriate for the particular rulemaking.

005.03 The convenor shall report findings and make recommendations to the Board. Upon request of the Board, the convenor shall ascertain the names of persons who are willing and qualified to represent the interests that will be significantly affected by the proposed rule. That report by the convenor and any recommendations of the convenor shall be public records and made available to the public for review upon request.
