37 TAC §13.273, §13.276
The Texas Department of Public Safety adopts amendments to §13.273
and §13.276, concerning Controlled Substances - Denial, Revocation, and
Related Disciplinary Action, without changes to the proposed text as published
in the March 22, 2002, issue of the
Texas Register
(27 TexReg 2204).
Amendment to §13.273 clarifies grounds for denial and corrects cross-reference
that was in error. Amendment to §13.276 also corrects cross-reference
that was in error due to renumbering of a previous version of the rules.
No comments were received regarding adoption of the amendments.
The amendments are adopted pursuant to Texas Government Code, §411.006(4),
which provides that the director of the department shall adopt rules, subject
to commission approval, considered necessary for the control of the department;
and Health and Safety Code, §481.003(a), which authorizes the director
to adopt rules to administer and enforce the Texas Controlled Substances Act.
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 May 14, 2002.
