IN RE:
HB872 by Raymond (Relating to the reactivation of a peace officer license; authorizing fees.), As Engrossed

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend the Occupations Code to require the Commission on Law Enforcement to reactivate a peace officer's license after a break in employment if the license holder completed at least 10 years of full-time service, completes an on-line or in-person supplemental peace officer course of not more than 120 hours, and passes a peace officer reactivation exam.

It is assumed that implementing the provisions of the bill would not result in a significant fiscal impact.

The bill would take effect September 1, 2015.

Local Government Impact
