Part VII. State Securities Board

Chapter 119. Publicly Offered Cattle Feeding Programs

7 TAC §§119.1-119.4

The State Securities Board adopts the repeal of §§119.1-119.4, concerning publicly offered cattle feeding programs, without changes to the proposed text as published in the March 12, 1999, issue of the Texas Register (24 TexReg 1707).

Since no cattle feeding programs have been registered with the Agency since the 1980s, specific guidelines for such programs are unnecessary. Following this repeal, any cattle feeding programs applying for registration with the Agency will be subject to the more general securities registration guidelines contained in Chapter 113 (7 TAC §§113.1-113.25).

A chapter that is no longer needed will be eliminated.

No comments were received regarding adoption of the repeal.

The repeals are adopted under Texas Civil Statutes, Article 581-28-1. Section 28-1 provides the Board with the authority to adopt rules and regulations necessary to carry out and implement the provisions of the Texas Securities Act, including rules and regulations governing registration statements and applications; defining terms; classifying securities, persons, and matters within its jurisdiction; and prescribing different requirements for different classes.

This agency hereby certifies that the adoption has been reviewed by legal counsel and found to be a valid exercise of the agency's legal authority.

Filed with the Office of the Secretary of State on July 12, 1999.
