Amend the bill by striking out everything after the enacting clause and before the summary and inserting the following:

‘Sec. 1. 32 MRSA §1501-B is enacted to read:

§ 1501-B. Temporary license

The board may issue a 6-month, nonrenewable temporary license to an applicant who pays the required fee and:

1. Active license. Holds an active license to practice funeral service in another state whose license requirements are substantially similar to the license requirements under this chapter and board rules; or

2. Continuous active practice. Has been in continuous active practice as a licensed practitioner of funeral service in another state whose license requirements are substantially similar to the requirements of the laws and rules of this State for 2 years immediately preceding submission of the application for temporary licensure.

Upon verification of the absence of disciplinary history with respect to the holder of a temporary license under this section from every jurisdiction where the holder of a temporary license is or previously has been licensed, the board may issue a permanent license to the holder of a temporary license upon notification by the board that the holder of a temporary license has passed an examination required by the board by rule. The board shall adopt routine technical rules pursuant to Title 5, chapter 375, subchapter 2-A to carry out the provisions of this section.’

SUMMARY

This amendment replaces the bill. It allows the State Board of Funeral Service to issue a nonrenewable temporary license to a qualified applicant in order to allow the holder to practice funeral service until the holder has passed the State Law and Rule Examination. The term of a temporary license is 6 months.
