NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that pursuant to authority vested in the Psychology Examining Board in ss. 15.08 (5) (b) and 227.11 (2), Stats., and interpreting s. 455.045, Stats., the Psychology Examining Board will hold a public hearing at the time and place indicated below to consider an order to amend s.

Hearing Date, Time and Location
Date:   March 27, 2002
Time:   9:15 a.m.
Location:   1400 East Washington Avenue
  Room 180
  Madison, Wisconsin
Appearances at the Hearing:
Interested persons are invited to present information at the hearing. Persons appearing may make an oral presentation but are urged to submit facts, opinions and argument in writing as well. Facts, opinions and argument may also be submitted in writing without a personal appearance by mail addressed to the Department of Regulation and Licensing, Office of Administrative Rules, P.O. Box 8935, Madison, Wisconsin 53708. Written comments must be received by April 12, 2002, to be included in the record of rule-making proceedings.
Analysis prepared by the Department of Regulation and Licensing.
Statutes authorizing promulgation: ss. 15.08 (5) (b) and 227.11 (2), Stats.
Statute interpreted: s. 455.045, Stats.
Currently, s. Psy 2.02, Wis. Admin. Code, requires that the board schedule examinations on the professional practice of psychology at least twice a year. Examinations are now administered by computer. This proposed rule-making order will eliminate a lengthy lead time prior to the examination that was needed when the examination was administered and scored manually. The same rule requires an applicant to complete all application materials “before the first of the month immediately prior to" a board meeting before taking the examination on the elements of practice essential to the public health, safety or welfare. Since the board meets on a different date each month, another proposed rule change would make the lead time for this requirement easier to administer.
Fiscal Estimate
1. The anticipated fiscal effect on the fiscal liability and revenues of any local unit of government of the proposed rule is: $0.00.
2. The projected anticipated state fiscal effect during the current biennium of the proposed rule is: $0.00.
3. The projected net annualized fiscal impact on state funds of the proposed rule is: $0.00.
Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
