House Bill 1586

House Author:  King, Tracy O.

Effective:  Vetoed

Senate Sponsor:  Estes

            House Bill 1586 amends the Texas Structural Pest Control Act, Occupations Code, to clarify the service-related activities for which a person is considered to be engaged in the business of structural pest control and is required to hold a license under the act.

 

            Governor's Reason for Veto: "House Bill 1586 is unnecessary. Existing law gives the Texas Department of Agriculture sufficient statutory authority to regulate exterminators."
