                                 A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
                                        AN ACT
    1-1  relating to administrative licensing.
    1-2        BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
    1-3        SECTION 1.  Section 2001.054, Government Code, is amended by
    1-4  adding Subsection (d) to read as follows:
    1-5        (d)  A license described in Subsection (a) remains valid
    1-6  unless it expires without timely application for renewal, is
    1-7  amended, revoked, suspended, annulled, or withdrawn, or the denial
    1-8  of a renewal application becomes final.  The term or duration of a
    1-9  license described in Subsection (a) is tolled during the period the
   1-10  license is subjected to judicial review.  However, the term or
   1-11  duration of a license is not tolled if, during judicial review, the
   1-12  licensee engages in the activity for which the license was issued.
   1-13        SECTION 2.  This Act takes effect September 1, 1995, and is
   1-14  applicable to licenses described in Subsection (a), Section
   1-15  2001.054, Government Code, that are valid and existing on the
   1-16  effective date of this Act.
   1-17        SECTION 3.  The importance of this legislation and the
   1-18  crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
   1-19  emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
   1-20  constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
   1-21  days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended.
