The Legislative Research Commission has also made Kentucky Bills available via the Internet. The United States and Kentucky Constitutions can be found in the first volume of the KRS, on Kentucky Law on Disc , or on the Internet. The legislature often passes broad based legislation that establishes a regulatory scheme. It is left to Kentucky's administrative agencies to flesh out these laws and carry out the will of the legislature. The agencies do this by promulgating regulations.
Regulations have the same force and effect as any law passed by the legislature.
The KAR is issued annually. It is broken up into title, chapter and section numbers. Turn to the Index located in the last volume of the set. The KAR is updated by the monthly Administrative Register of Kentucky . In the back of each issue is a cumulative table, Locator Index-Effective Dates , listing which regulations have been amended, repealed etc, and in which volume of the Register to look in to see the change.
