IN RE:
HB831 by Thompson, Senfronia (Relating to the basic peace officer training course, including training for peace officers on the prohibition against the intentional use of certain neck restraints.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted
The provisions of the bill addressed by this analysis would amend the Occupations Code as it relates to the basic peace officer training course, including training for peace officers on the prohibition against the intentional use of certain neck restraints.
This analysis assumes implementing the provisions of the bill would not result in a significant impact 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.
