Honorable Charles Perry, Chair, Senate Committee on Water, Agriculture & Rural Affairs
 
FROM:

IN RE:
HB3442 by Anderson (Relating to complaints filed with the State Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners.), As Engrossed

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend Section 801.207, Occupations Code, to require the Texas Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners (TBVME) to provide a copy of each complaint to the license holder who is the subject of the complaint not later than the 14th day before the date any response is due and provide a complainant a copy of any response to the complaint the license holder provides not later than the 14th day after the date TBVME receives the response, unless providing a copy would jeopardize an investigation.

Based on the information provided by TBMVE, it is assumed any costs or duties associated with implementing the provisions of the bill could be absorbed within the agency's existing resources.

Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
