authority - Costs.

A. In addition to any other powers conferred upon the

Administrator of the Department of Consumer Credit by law, the

Administrator is authorized to require persons subject to this act

to be licensed through a multistate automated licensing system.

Pursuant to this authority, the Administrator may:

1. Promulgate administrative rules that are reasonably

necessary for participation in, transition to or operation of a

multistate automated licensing system;

Oklahoma Statutes - Title 59. Professions and Occupations

2. Establish relationships or enter into agreements that are

reasonably necessary for participation in, transition to or

operation of a multistate automated licensing system. The

agreements may include, but are not limited to, operating

agreements, information-sharing agreements, interstate cooperative

agreements and technology licensing agreements;

3. Require that applications for licensing under this act and

renewals of such licenses may be filed with a multistate automated

licensing system;

4. Require that any fees required to be paid under this act and

required by a multistate automated licensing system may be paid

through a multistate automated licensing system;

5. Establish deadlines for transitioning licensees to a

multistate automated licensing system. The Administrator has the

authority to deny any applications or renewal applications not filed

with a multistate automated licensing system after such deadlines

have passed, notwithstanding any dates established elsewhere in this

act; provided, however, the Administrator shall provide reasonable

notice of any transition deadlines to licensees; and

6. Take such further actions as are reasonably necessary to

give effect to this section.

B. Nothing in this section shall authorize the Administrator to

require a person who is not subject to this act to submit

information to or to participate in a multistate automated licensing

system that is operated or participated in pursuant to this act.

C. The Administrator shall retain full authority and discretion

to license persons under this act and to enforce this act to its

fullest extent. Nothing in this section shall be deemed to be a

reduction or derogation of that authority and discretion.

D. Applicants for and holders of licenses issued under this act

shall pay all costs associated with submitting an application to or

transitioning a license to a multistate automated licensing system,

as well as all costs required by a multistate automated licensing

system for maintaining and renewing any license issued by the

Administrator on a multistate automated licensing system.
