Which entity computes the appropriate Board fees for licensure?

The Division of Professional Regulation is responsible for computing the appropriate fees associated with licensure for various professions, including funeral directing. This entity works under the guidance of the state government to ensure that all licensing fees are set appropriately to reflect the costs of regulating the profession and maintaining compliance with state laws. The fee structures are determined based on the operational costs that the Division incurs to provide oversight, support, and enforcement of regulations related to funeral services.

The other entities listed typically do not have the direct authority or role in determining these fees. The Office of the Governor primarily focuses on executive functions and governance, while the Department of Health may be involved in public health matters but does not set licensure fees for professions like funeral directing. The Board of Funeral Directors, while overseeing the profession, may provide input or recommendations, but it is the Division of Professional Regulation that ultimately calculates and formalizes the fees associated with obtaining a license in this field.
