Veterans Affairs
On March 1, 2007 the Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs submitted a proposed rule to the Wisconsin Legislative Council Rules Clearinghouse repealing ss.
VA 8.01 and
8.03 (1) of the Wisconsin Administrative Code. The proposed rule relates to the county veterans service officer grant program.
Analysis
The proposed order eliminates references to an obsolete pay schedule that had established a minimum pay level for CVSOs. Data establish that the current salaries of CVSOs significantly exceed the current minimum levels. In fact, 43 out of 72 counties exceed the maximum applicable pay levels.
There is no current or pending federal regulation that addresses this initiative. There are no similar rules in adjacent states. This rule has no regulatory aspect to it, has no effect upon small businesses, nor any significant impact upon the private sector.
Agency Procedure for Promulgation
A public hearing is required and will be held on April 20, 2007. The Office of the Secretary is primarily responsible for preparing the rule.
