8. (h) provide any other information that the administrator reasonably requires to perform the administrator's duties under this section.
(3) Except for the information required by Subsections 13-42-106(7), (14), and (17) and the addresses required by Subsection 13-42-106(4), the administrator shall make the information in an application for renewal of registration as a provider available to the public.
(4) If a registered provider files a timely and complete application for renewal of registration, the registration remains effective until the administrator, in a record, notifies the applicant of a denial and states the reasons for the denial.
(5) If the administrator denies an application for renewal of registration as a provider, the applicant, no later than 30 days after receiving notice of the denial, may appeal and request a hearing pursuant to Title 63G, Chapter 4, Administrative Procedures Act. Subject to Section 13-42-134, while the appeal is pending the applicant shall continue to provide debt-management services to individuals with whom it has agreements. If the denial is affirmed, subject to the administrator's order and Section 13-42-134, the applicant shall continue to provide debt-management services to individuals with whom it has agreements until, with the approval of the administrator, it transfers the agreements to another registered provider or returns to the individuals all unexpended money that is under the applicant's control.
(6)
1. (a) The administrator may waive or reduce the insurance requirement in Subsection (2)(e) if the provider does not:
  1. (i) maintain control of a trust account or receive money paid by an individual pursuant to a plan for distribution to creditors;
  2. (ii) make payments to creditors on behalf of individuals;
  3. (iii) collect fees by means of automatic payment from individuals; and
  4. (iv) execute any powers of attorney that may be utilized by the provider to collect fees from or expend funds on behalf of an individual.
2. (b) A waiver or reduction in insurance requirements allowed by the administrator under Subsection (6)(a) shall balance the reduction in risk posed by a provider meeting the stated requirements against any continued need for insurance against employee and director dishonesty.
