| IN RE: | HB3149 by Wong (Relating to inactive status for cosmetology certificate or license holders.), As Engrossed |
The provisions of the bill amend the Occupations Code to allow for an individual with a cosmetology license to become inactive by the individual paying a required biennial fee prior to the expiration date of the license. The provisions also allow for an inactive licensee to maintain as inactive by reapplying for inactive status or to become active by reapplying for an active license, paying for an active license fee, and documentation showing the completion or continuing education requirements.
Based on information provided by the Cosmetology Commission, it is estimated that the provisions of the bill would not have a significant fiscal impact.
The bill would take effect September 1, 2005.
