Senate Bill 993 |
Senate Author: Deuell et al. |

Effective: 6-14-13 |
House Sponsor: King, Susan |
Current law establishes the interagency coordinating group task force to help direct the interagency coordinating group for faith- and community-based organizations in carrying out the group's duties. Senate Bill 993 amends the Government Code to rename the task force as the Texas Nonprofit Council, revises the composition of the council, and establishes certain duties previously tasked to the interagency coordinating group as duties of the council. The bill provides for the election of a chair or chairs and a secretary from among the members of the council and establishes the terms for which council members are required to serve. The bill requires the council to prepare a biennial report detailing the council's work, exempts the council from statutory provisions relating to state agency advisory committees, and makes the council subject to the Texas Sunset Act.
