Existing law authorizes the Insurance Commissioner to increase or decrease the fees set forth in the Insurance Code, as necessary, to allow the Department of Insurance to meet the appropriation authorized by the annual Budget Act. Any increase or decrease in fees is required to be made in accordance with certain requirements, and the increase in fees is prohibited from exceeding 10% without the prior approval of the Legislature. Existing law authorizes the department to make a single annual increase or decrease in fees, on a fiscal year basis, at any time during the year, provided it is announced by a bulletin issued at least 90 days prior to the effective date of that increase or decrease. The bulletin is required to be sent to all affected parties and to both houses of the Legislature. Existing law authorizes that fee increase or decrease to be rescinded by a majority vote of both houses of the Legislature, not later than 60 days after the issuance of the bulletin announcing the increase or decrease, except as provided.
