Amend SB 1000 as follows:                                                    

(1)  In SECTION 1 of the bill, in the first sentence of 	Subsection (a), Section 2113.108, Government Code, as added by the 
bill (house committee printing, page 1, line 9), between "(a) A 
state agency" and "may not use appropriated", insert "other than 
the offices of the attorney general and comptroller".
	(2)  Strike existing SECTION 2 of the bill (house committee 
printing, page 2, lines 4-22) and substitute the following:
	SECTION 2.  Chapter 323, Government Code, is amended by 
adding Section 323.020 to read as follows:
	Sec. 323.020.  CONTRACTS TO PERFORM STATISTICAL OR 
DEMOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS; CONFIDENTIALITY.  (a)  Except for Subsection 
(b), this section does not apply in relation to a statistical or 
demographic analysis of information related to the redistricting 
process.
	(b)  The council may determine whether and the extent to 
which council resources are available to perform or assist a state 
agency in performing a statistical or demographic analysis of 
information as described by Section 2113.108.
	(c)  Except as provided by this section, information that the 
council acquires or produces in relation to a statistical or 
demographic analysis described by Section 2113.108 is confidential 
and not public information subject to Chapter 552, including:
		(1)  any information that identifies or tends to 
identify an individual or other entity that submitted information 
or that was asked to submit information for the analysis;
		(2)  working drafts and working papers developed in 
performing the analysis;
		(3)  contracts and subcontracts entered into for 
purposes of performing the analysis;
		(4)  internal and interagency correspondence sent or 
received in the course of performing the analysis;
		(5)  memoranda of understanding entered into in 
relation to performing the analysis; and
		(6)  data, data files, databases, computer coding, 
computer specification programs, data use agreements, and data 
dictionaries acquired or used in performing the analysis.
	(d)  Without regard to whether the council collects 
information for purposes of performing a statistical or demographic 
analysis of information as described by Section 2113.108  
indirectly through the state agency or directly from another 
governmental or nongovernmental entity, an individual or other 
entity that voluntarily provides information to the state agency or 
to the council for purposes of the analysis does not waive any 
exception from required disclosure or any privilege not to disclose 
the information, and the character of the information as privileged 
or excepted from required disclosure is not affected by that action 
of the individual or other entity.
	(e)  A final report containing a statistical or demographic 
analysis of information as described by Section 2113.108, a cover 
letter or cover memorandum for the final report, and an 
announcement that the final report is available are not 
confidential and are subject to required public disclosure under 
Chapter 552 except to the extent that the final report, cover letter 
or cover memorandum, or announcement contains information that 
identifies or tends to identify an individual or entity other than 
information that names a staff member who performed work in 
relation to performing the analysis or that names government 
officials on a letterhead.
	(f)  Notwithstanding Subsection (c)(3), a contract between 
the council and a state agency under Section 2113.108 and the names 
of the staff members who perform work in relation to performing the 
analysis under the contract are not confidential.  A contract 
between the council and a state agency under Section 2113.108 is 
public information subject to Chapter 552.
	(g)  Information that an individual or other entity submits 
for the purpose of a statistical or demographic analysis of 
information performed by the council under Section 2113.108 may not 
be used against the individual or other entity in a state agency 
enforcement proceeding.  This subsection does not affect the 
ability of a state agency to obtain the information by other means 
and to use the information, if obtained by other means, in a state 
agency enforcement proceeding.
	(3)  Add the following new SECTION 3 of the bill and renumber 
existing SECTION 3 of the bill as SECTION 4 of the bill:
	SECTION 3.  Section 552.112, Government Code, is amended by 
adding Subsection (c) to read as follows:
	(c)  Information is excepted from the requirements of 
Section 552.021 if it is information submitted by an individual or 
other entity to the Texas Legislative Council, or to any state 
agency or department overseen by the Finance Commission of Texas 
and the information has been or will be sent to the Texas 
Legislative Council, for the purpose of performing a statistical or 
demographic analysis of information subject to Section 323.020. 
However, this subsection does not except from the requirements of 
Section 552.021 information that does not identify or tend to 
identify an individual or other entity and that is subject to 
required public disclosure under Section 323.020(e).
