Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
The proposed rules will affect out-of-home care providers, some of which are small businesses under s. 227.114 (1), Stats. Exemption or less stringent compliance for small business is not possible due to federal and state statutory requirements on the rights of children in the care of these providers.
