STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

The purpose of this rule is to effectuate the legislative directive to promulgate necessary and appropriate rules in conformity with the statute and the provisions of the federal Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989.

SPECIFIC PURPOSE OF THIS RULEMAKING

The specific purpose of this rule is to amend or repeal existing rules with respect to appraiser temporary practice permits.
