House Bill 1668 amends the Health and Safety Code to require the Public Utility Commission to monitor and review the establishment of rates for certain fees and charges associated with 9-1-1 emergency service. In addition, the act authorizes the state auditor, at the request of the commission, to audit a regional planning commission that receives money from the emergency services fee and the equalization surcharge. It also authorizes the comptroller, in the course of an audit of a service provider, to include an audit of the collections and disbursements of these fees.
