FROM: | John Keel, Director, Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | HB599 by Chisum (Relating to the continuation and functions of the State Bar of Texas.), As Introduced |
The bill would amend Government Code, Chapter 81, to implement recommendations of the Sunset Advisory Commission and continue the State Bar of Texas in existence until 2015. The State Bar operates as a public corporation funded primarily by membership dues and professional development program fees and is not subject to state appropriations. Therefore, the bill would have no fiscal impact to General Revenue or any other fund maintained in the state treasury.
The bill would take effect September 1, 2003.
