By Erickson, Rabuck                                    H.B. No. 781
                                 A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
    1-1                                AN ACT
    1-2  relating to the inspection of certain electronic products under the
    1-3  Texas Radiation Control Act.
    1-4        BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
    1-5        SECTION 1.  Section 401.064,  Health and Safety Code, is
    1-6  amended by adding Subsections (d)-(f) to read as follows:
    1-7        (d)  The board by rule shall require a person who inspects
    1-8  medical or dental electronic products to have special training in
    1-9  the design and uses of the products.
   1-10        (e)  The department shall conduct inspections of medical and
   1-11  dental electronic products in a manner designed to cause as little
   1-12  disruption of a medical or dental practice as is practicable.
   1-13        (f)  In adopting rules under this section relating to the
   1-14  inspection of medical and dental electronic products or to the
   1-15  training of a person who conducts the inspections, the board shall
   1-16  solicit and follow the recommendations of the State Board of Dental
   1-17  Examiners for the inspection of dental electronic products and the
   1-18  Texas State Board of Medical Examiners for the inspection of
   1-19  medical electronic products.
   1-20        SECTION 2.  The importance of this legislation and the
   1-21  crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
   1-22  emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
   1-23  constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
   1-24  days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended,
    2-1  and that this Act take effect and be in force from and after its
    2-2  passage, and it is so enacted.
