The Comptroller may make, amend, rescind and enforce such rules and regulations and amendments thereto, as may be necessary for the purpose of carrying out this Act.

Among other things, the Comptroller may, for the purposes of this Act, prescribe the form or forms in which required information shall be set forth, the items or details to be shown in any statement or report, and the methods to be followed in the preparation of accounts and in the appraisal or evaluation of assets and liabilities. When any regulations or amendments thereto are made after such hearing, a written order setting forth the regulations or amendments shall be prepared by the Comptroller and kept on file in his office and a copy of each such order shall be sent by the Comptroller by United States mail to all cemetery authorities within 5 days after the filing in his office of such order. No regulations or amendments shall become effective until 10 days after the mailing of such order.

All regulations and all amendments thereto and all orders, decisions and findings shall be filed and entered by the Comptroller in an indexed permanent book or record, with the effective date thereof suitably indicated, and such book or record is a public document.
