BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: |
|
|
SECTION 1. Section 6002.158(c), Insurance Code, is amended |

|
|
must: |

|
|
a residential fire alarm superintendent license, or a fire alarm |
|
|
technician license; and |
|
|
(2) have at least three years of experience in fire |
|
|

|
|
to an application for approval or renewal of approval of a training |
|
|
school instructor submitted to the state fire marshal on or after |
|

|
|
immediately before the effective date of this Act, and that law is |
|
