Identical to S 36, filed 1/31/13.

Amends GS 150B-21.2(c) and GS 150B-45(a) as the title indicates.

Amends GS 150B-21.7 to clarify that a rule remains in effect until the agency with authority over the rule amends or repeals it when (1) a law that authorizes an agency to adopt a rule is repealed and (2) another law gives the same or another agency substantially the same authority to adopt a rule. Structurally reorganizes the provisions into subsections (a), (b), and (c) and makes conforming changes. Removes requirement that the Director of Fiscal Research must notify the Codifier of Rules when a rule is repealed, and instead requires the adopting agency to so notify.

Deletes the ten-day deadline for the Codifier to submit revisions for the form of a rule.
