The legislative council may prescribe the format, style, and arrangement for rules to be published in the code and may refuse to accept the filing of any rule that is not in substantial compliance with the format, style, and arrangement. In arranging rules for publication, the legislative council may make corrections in spelling, grammatical construction, format, and punctuation of the rules as the legislative council determines are proper.

If the legislative council does not publish the code supplement due to technological problems or lack of funds, the agency whose rules would have been published in the code supplement shall provide a copy of the rules to any person upon request.
