Is a published notice of change required for all changes to a proposed rule?
No. A published notice of change is not required for technical changes to a proposed rule. Technical changes are limited to matters not changing the meaning or construction of the rule, such as punctuation, misspellings, correction of tense or gender, misprints, change of address or telephone number. The Department of State may be notified of technical changes by a letter specifically noting the changes. Any changes to a proposed rule must be incorporated in the final rule when it is filed with the department. See section 120.54(3)(d)1., F.S.
