      NECESSITY, FUNCTION, AND CONFORMITY: KRS 234.120 requires the Executive Director to promulgate reasonable administrative regulations requiring proof of financial responsibility. This administrative regulation is made to assure persons injured by LP Gas dealers have some assets against which to recoup some of their loss. This amendment is necessary to incorporate the 1994 legislative changes set forth in KRS 234.120.
