(a) Purpose. This rule implements the Health and Human
Services Commission (HHSC) authority to require the health and human
services agencies listed in Texas Civil Statutes, Article 4413(502), §19,
to submit agency strategic plans and budgets to the HHSC for use in
the Health and Human Services Coordinated Strategic Plan and Consolidated
Budget.
(b) Requirement to Submit. HHSC requires the component
agencies to submit agency strategic plans and Legislative Appropriations
Requests (LARs) to the commission on the same date the agency strategic
plans and LARs are due to the governor and the Legislative Budget
Board. From time to time, as the governor's and Legislative Budget
Board's due dates are announced, HHSC will announce the dates on which
it requires the component agencies to submit draft strategic plans
and LARs and explanatory material to it.
