aggrieved by a department requirement concerning the submission of

		(1)  is unduly burdensome; or                                          
		(2)  is not a request for information material to 
fixing and promulgating premium rates or another matter that may be 
the subject of the biennial hearing and is not a request reasonably 
designed to lead to the discovery of that information.
	(2)  In SECTION 1 of the bill, in amended Section 2703.153, 
Insurance Code, strike added Subsections (f) and (g) of that

	(g)  This section may not be construed to limit the 
department's authority to request information under Section 38.001 
or other applicable provisions of this code.
	(3)  In SECTION 2 of the bill, in amended Section 2703.204, 
Insurance Code, strike added Subsections (b), (c), (d), and (e) of

does not have a substantial interest in title insurance. A decision 
of the commission to deny or grant the request is final and subject 
to appeal in accordance with Section 36.202.
