Senate Bill 560 amends the Business & Commerce Code and Finance Code to remove the consumer credit commissioner's jurisdiction to enforce a prohibition against certain sellers of goods or services imposing a surcharge for the use of a credit card. The bill instead transfers that prohibition to the Business & Commerce Code and provides for a civil penalty for a person who knowingly violates that transferred prohibition.
