(a) It is the Board's policy to employ negotiated rulemaking procedures when appropriate. When the Board is of the opinion that proposed rules are likely to be complex, or controversial, or to affect disparate groups, negotiated rulemaking will be considered.
(b) When negotiated rulemaking is to be considered, the Board will appoint a convener to assist it in determining whether it is advisable to proceed. The convener shall have the duties described in Government Code § 2008.052 and shall make a recommendation to the Executive Director to proceed or to defer negotiated rulemaking. The recommendation shall be made after the convener, at a minimum, has considered all of the items enumerated in Government Code § 2008.052(c).
(c) Upon the convener's recommendation to proceed, the Board shall initiate negotiated rulemaking according to the provisions of Chapter 2008, Government Code.
