IN RE: | SB1814 by Estes (Relating to a requirement that members of the Public Safety Commission hold a secret security clearance.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted |
The bill would amend the Government Code to require as a qualification of service that each Public Safety Commissioner possess and maintain a United States secret level security clearance. It is assumed the costs associated with implementing the bill's provision could be absorbed within current appropriations. The bill would take effect immediately upon a two-thirds vote of both chambers; otherwise, the bill would take effect September 1, 2013.
