The commission shall review each registration statement, expenditure
statement, and financial transaction statement filed with the commission, to
determine whether the statement includes all the information required. If the
statement does not include all the required information, or a legislative agent or
employer has failed to file a registration statement, the commission shall send
notification by certified mail to the person who filed the statement regarding the
deficiency in the statement, or to the person who failed to file the statement
regarding that failure. Any person so notified by the commission shall, not later
than ten (10) days after receiving the notice, file a registration statement or an
amended statement that does include all the information required.
The commission shall keep on file the statements required by KRS 6.807,
6.821, and 6.824. Those statements are public records and open to public
inspection, and the commission shall computerize them so that the information
contained in them is readily accessible to the general public. The commission
shall provide copies of the statements to the general public upon request and
may charge a reasonable fee not to exceed the cost of copying each
statement.
The commission shall prescribe and make available an appropriate form for
filing the information required by KRS 6.807, 6.821, and 6.824. The form shall
contain the following notices in boldface type: "ANY PERSON WHO
KNOWINGLY FILES A FALSE STATEMENT IS IN VIOLATION OF STATE
LAW AND SUBJECT TO FINES AND OTHER PENALTIES."
The commission shall publish a handbook that explains this code in clear and
concise language, and make it available free of charge to members of the
General Assembly, legislative agents, employers, and any other interested
persons.
On or before the fifteenth day of February of each year, the commission shall,
in a manner and form it determines, publish a report containing statistical
information on the registration statements filed with it during the preceding
year.
Any regulations promulgated by the commission to implement this code shall
be adopted in accordance with KRS Chapter 13A.
