Matched Legal Cases: ['§122', '§10407', '§10118', '§10407', '§10118', '§122', '§122']

Pursuant to 14 Del.C. §122(a), the Secretary of Education seeks the consent of the State Board of Education to reauthorize 14 DE Admin. Code 545 K to 12 School Counseling Programs. The Department has reviewed the regulation in order to comply with 29 Del.C. §10407 which requires regulations to be reviewed on a recurring basis every four years.
Notice of the proposed regulation was published in the News Journal and the Delaware State News on June 1, 2019, in the form hereto attached as Exhibit “A”. No comments were received. However, the Department of Education made changes to the names of the components to align with the recently released 4th edition of the American School Counselor Association National Model. The Secretary deems these changes to be non-substantive and therefore the regulation does not require republication based on 29 Del.C. §10118(c).
The Secretary finds that it is appropriate to reauthorize 14 DE Admin. Code 545 K to 12 School Counseling Programs in order to comply with 29 Del.C. §10407 which requires regulations to be reviewed on a recurring basis every four years and notes that changes were made to the names of the components to align with the recently released 4th edition of the American School Counselor Association National Model. The Secretary deems these changes to be non-substantive and therefore the regulation does not require republication based on 29 Del.C. §10118(c).
For the foregoing reasons, the Secretary concludes that it is appropriate to reauthorize 14 DE Admin. Code 545 K to 12 School Counseling Programs. Therefore, pursuant to 14 Del.C. §122, 14 DE Admin. Code 545 K to 12 School Counseling Programs attached hereto as Exhibit “B” is hereby reauthorized. Pursuant to the provision of 14 Del.C. §122(e), 14 DE Admin. Code 545 K to 12 School Counseling Programs hereby reauthorized shall be in effect for a period of five years from the effective date of this order as set forth in Section V. below.
The text of 14 DE Admin. Code 545 K to 12 School Counseling Programs reauthorized hereby shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “B”, and said regulation shall be cited as 14 DE Admin. Code 545 K to 12 School Counseling Programs in the Administrative Code of Regulations for the Department of Education.
