WITHDRAWAL OFPREPROPOSAL STATEMENT OF INQUIRY

[Filed September 30, 2015, 3:50 p.m.]

I am withdrawing the CR-101 Preproposal statement of intent for R 2012-05 Conversion Regulations, published by the code reviser in WSR 12-07-091. The original intent of this rule filing was to repeal chapter 284-52 WAC, Conversion regulation.

During consideration of rule making there were legal concerns raised that this office does not have the necessary authority to undertake rule making on this topic; no subsequent legislation was passed in the last three legislative sessions to provide such clear authority.

We will contact individuals that provided comments during the CR-101 comment period and make them aware of this withdrawal.

Mike Kreidler

Insurance Commissioner
