   1-11  adding Subsection (d) to read as follows:
   1-12        (d)  A license described in Subsection (a) remains valid
   1-13  unless it expires without timely application for renewal, is
   1-14  amended, revoked, suspended, annulled, or withdrawn, or the denial
   1-15  of a renewal application becomes final.  The term or duration of a
   1-16  license described in Subsection (a) is tolled during the period the
   1-17  license is subjected to judicial review.  However, the term or
   1-18  duration of a license is not tolled if, during judicial review, the
   1-19  licensee engages in the activity for which the license was issued.
   1-20        SECTION 2.  This Act takes effect September 1, 1995, and is
   1-21  applicable to licenses described in Subsection (a), Section
   1-22  2001.054, Government Code, that are valid and existing on the
   1-23  effective date of this Act.
   1-24        SECTION 3.  The importance of this legislation and the
   1-25  crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
   1-26  emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
   1-27  constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
   1-28  days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended.
