About Legislative and Regulatory Affairs  

The Office of Legislative and Regulatory Affairs handles a wide variety of duties for the Department.

The Office produces and issues most of the documents by which the statutory authority of the Department is executed, including rulemakings, orders, bulletins and public notices.

The Office serves as the Department's liaison with the Office of the Attorney General on all legal matters, and with the Office of Administrative Law in preparing and submitting contested cases and issuing final administrative decisions.

The Office coordinates the acceptance of substitute service of process on all foreign admitted insurers, certain banking institutions and non-resident Department licensees, and coordinates the handling of subpoenas and other legal documents served on the Department.

The Office coordinates the Department's legislative functions and serves as the Commissioner's liaison with the Legislature. This includes researching and drafting legislative initiatives and assisting in efforts required for passage; analyzing and monitoring banking, insurance and real estate-related legislation; and providing information and services to legislators and their constituents.

Finally, the Office receives and responds to inquiries from consumers, industry representatives, and other regulatory agencies regarding the banking and insurance statutes and rules.
