Rules have the force of law if validly adopted and filed.
You may contact the Division if you have questions on what proposed or adopted rules have been filed, or if you want copies of these rules or other documents. See Copies of the Official Version of a Rule . See also Agency Administrative Rules for rules available on-line and Agency Filing Histories . Certain older documents, such as the original hard copy of adopted rules filed approximately 3 years or more before a request for inspection, are kept in storage with the Secretary of State's Division of Records Management and Archives. See Requesting Copies of the Manual for copies of the New Hampshire Drafting and Procedure Manual for Administrative Rules .
