TITLE 25.HEALTH SERVICES

Part 11. TEXAS CANCER COUNCIL

Chapter 703. PROJECT CONTRACTS AND GRANTS

25 TAC §§703.3, 703.5, 703.6

The Texas Cancer Council adopts amendments to §§703.3, 703.5, and 703.6 concerning the scope, project proposal submission, and review process as published in the October 6, 2006, issue of the Texas Register (31 TexReg 8334). The rules are adopted without changes to the proposed text and will not be republished.

These sections are being amended to make the substitution of "application" for "proposal" consistent throughout the rules to more accurately reflect the proposal process used for Council grants.

No public comments were received.

The rule amendments are adopted under the Texas Health and Safety Code Annotated, §102.002 and §102.009, which provide the Texas Cancer Council with the authority to develop and implement the Texas Cancer Plan, §102.010 which authorizes the Council to establish a grant program and adopt rules regarding grants, and the Texas Government Code, Annotated, §2001.004.

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 February 2, 2007.
