20-2409. Administrative and procedural
authority regarding risk retention groups and purchasing
groups


The director may make use of any of the powers established under this title to
enforce the laws of this state so long as those powers are not specifically preempted by
the product liability risk retention act of 1981, as amended by the risk retention
amendments of 1986. This includes the director's administrative authority to
investigate, issue subpoenas, conduct depositions and hearings, issue orders and impose
penalties. With regard to any investigation, administrative proceedings or litigation,
the director may rely on the procedural law and rules of this state. The injunctive
authority of the director in regard to risk retention groups is restricted by the
requirement that any injunction be issued by a court of competent jurisdiction.
