SCS/SB 953 - Under this act, if a substance is designated, rescheduled, or deleted as a controlled substance under federal law, the Department of Health and Senior Services shall promulgate emergency rules to implement such change within 30 days of publication of the change in the Federal Register, unless the Department objects to such change. If the Department promulgates emergency rules under this act, the rules may remain in effect until the legislature concludes its next regular session following the imposition of the rules. Additionally, this act updates the schedules of controlled substances in Missouri to mirror the most recent update to the schedules in 19 CSR 30-1.002 and further updates by the Drug Enforcement Agency in the Federal Register.
