IN RE: | SB1517 by Van de Putte (Relating to the collection of data regarding the placement of a child in disciplinary seclusion in a juvenile facility.), As Engrossed |
The bill would amend the Human Resources code to require the Texas Juvenile Justice Department to collect data relating to the placement of a child in disciplinary seclusion in a juvenile facility. It is assumed that implementing the provisions of the bill can be absorbed within the existing resources of the agency.
This Act takes effect immediately if it receives a vote of two-thirds of all the members elected to each house, as provided by Section 39, Article III, Texas Constitution. If this Act does not receive the vote necessary for immediate effect, this Act takes effect September 1, 2013.
