bureau, officer, authority or commission, except such as relates to  the
organization  or  internal  management  of  a  state  department, board,

the  speedy  publication  of  such  rules and regulations by appropriate
laws.  THE LEGISLATURE MAY REVIEW ANY RULE OR REGULATION TO DETERMINE IF

STATE OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, THE LEGISLATURE SHALL TRANSMIT THIS  FINDING
