IN RE:
SB471 by Rodríguez (Relating to reviews and investigations conducted by the Texas Education Agency.), As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would establish certain provisions for monitoring reviews, require the Texas Education Agency to adopt written procedures for conducting special accreditation investigations, and clarify the Commissioner of Education's authority to impose an intervention or sanction on the basis of a special accreditation investigation. The agency estimates there would be a minimal cost associated with implementing the provisions of the bill.
Local Government Impact
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
