11-1. Sections of Rule Chapter 11-1, F.A.C., describe the powers and duties, public access and dissemination of public records information of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

The proposed amendments raise the amount required to be approved by the Head of the Department from $25,000.00 to $100,000.00 for professional and consulting contracts, and the compromise and settlement of claims, actions and other legal proceedings. The amendment also raises the amount required to be reported by the Executive Director to the Department Head from $25,000.00 to $100,000.00 for expenditures involving all contracts, leases, lease-purchases, licenses, and agreements. Other terms are updated to conform to the agency's new organizational designations. The proposed amendments to Rule 11-1.0041, F.A.C., Confirmation and Delegation of Authority, are necessary to eliminate administrative rules that are redundant, obsolete, or
