Agencies within each of the executive offices may with the approval of the commissioner of administration, file with the secretary rules for the conduct of adjudicatory proceedings in said agency which substitute in whole or in part, or are additions to the standard rules filed by the commissioner. Such substitute rules shall be promulgated pursuant to the rule making procedures of this chapter and shall be filed with the state secretary within sixty days of the publication of the standard rules which shall govern adjudicatory proceedings commenced after ninety days from the publication thereof by the secretary, and shall take effect at the same time as the standard rules.
Thereafter, at any time the commissioner may file amendments to the standard rules. Agencies within any of the executive offices may subject to the approval of the commissioner of administration file substitute rules. Such amendments to the standard rules and such substitute rules shall take effect in accordance with section six.
