The provisions of the bill addressed by this analysis would amend the Occupations Code as it relates to the consideration of certain arrests in determining an applicant's eligibility for an occupational license. Under the provisions of the bill, a licensing authority may not consider an arrest that did not result in a conviction or placement on deferred adjudication community supervision to determine a person's fitness for the licensed occupation. 

This analysis assumes the provisions of the bill would not result in a significant impact on state correctional populations or on the demand for state correctional resources. The bill does not expressly create a felony offense, increase the punishment for an existing misdemeanor to that of a felony, increase the punishment for an existing felony offense or category of felony level offenses, or change the eligibility of a person for felony community supervision, parole, or mandatory supervision.
