TO APPROVE REGULATIONS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HUMAN AFFAIRS COMMISSION, RELATING TO COMPLAINT, DESIGNATED AS REGULATION DOCUMENT NUMBER 4675, PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE 1, CHAPTER 23, TITLE 1 OF THE 1976 CODE.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. The regulations of the South Carolina Human Affairs Commission, relating to Complaint, designated as Regulation Document Number 4675, and submitted to the General Assembly pursuant to the provisions of Article 1, Chapter 23, Title 1 of the 1976 Code, are approved.
SECTION 2. This joint resolution takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
Regulation 65-2 governs the requirements for the Agency's acceptance and retention of formal complaints of discrimination under the Human Affairs Law. Current language in the regulation requires notarization of all complaints. The proposed amendments would eliminate the need for notarization on the complaint form, and would instead reflect the statutory requirement that the complainant swear or affirm the allegations of the complaint under oath.
Notice of Drafting for the proposed amended regulation was published in the State Register on September 23, 2016.
