]]]] LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF IDAHO ]]]] Fifty-eighth Legislature Second Regular Session - 2006IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES HOUSE BILL NO. 628 BY JUDICIARY, RULES AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE 1 AN ACT 2 RELATING TO JUDGES' RETIREMENT AND COMPENSATION; AMENDING CHAPTER 20, TITLE 1, 3 IDAHO CODE, BY THE ADDITION OF A NEW SECTION 1-2012, IDAHO CODE, TO AU- 4 THORIZE THE SUPREME COURT TO ADOPT, AMEND AND RESCIND RULES AND ADMINIS- 5 TRATIVE POLICIES. 6 Be It Enacted by the Legislature of the State of Idaho: 7 SECTION 1. That Chapter 20, Title 1, Idaho Code, be, and the same is 8 hereby amended by the addition thereto of a NEW SECTION, to be known and des- 9 ignated as Section 1-2012, Idaho Code, and to read as follows: 10 1-2012. RULES AND ADMINISTRATIVE POLICIES. Subject to the other provi- 11 sions of this chapter, the supreme court shall have the power and authority to 12 adopt, amend and rescind such rules and administrative policies as may be nec- 13 essary for the proper administration of this chapter.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE RS 15930 This bill addresses the authority of the Supreme Court to adopt, amend or rescind rules for the administration of the Idaho Judges Retirement Fund. It would add a statutory provision conferring such authority on the court; this would be similar to Idaho Code Section 59-1314(1), which gives the Retirement Board rule-making authority with regard to the Public Employee Retirement Fund. Such rule-making authority would pertain only to administrative matters and would not extend to the level of retirement benefits, which would remain a matter to be determined by the Legislature by statute. FISCAL NOTE This bill would have no impact on the general fund. Contact Name: Patricia Tobias, Adm. Director of the Courts Phone: 334 2246 STATEMENT OF PURPOSE/FISCAL NOTE H 628
