Iowa Admin. Code r. 721-21.101
Upon receiving credible information that a commissioner may have violated a provision in Iowa Code chapters 39 through 52, the state commissioner shall require the commissioner to provide more information, or certification that the commissioner complied with the relevant law. The determination of credibility is solely at the discretion of the state commissioner. The state commissioner may require a complaining party to provide more information. The state commissioner may reject anonymous complaints without any additional inquiry. If it appears that the complaint originated from the commissioner's office, the state commissioner shall consult with the attorney general before proceeding.
If the state commissioner determines that a commissioner has not sufficiently responded to the inquiry, the state commissioner may issue a notice of infraction pursuant to Iowa Code chapter 39A, or refer the matter to the appropriate law enforcement agency, or both.
This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code section 47.1 as amended by 2017 Iowa Acts, House File 516, section 41.
