| (a) Before the Council will issue a license, an applicant
must undergo a fingerprint-based criminal history record check.
(b) The Council may require a licensee to obtain an
updated fingerprint-based criminal history record check at any time.
(c) A licensee who was not required to undergo a fingerprint
based criminal history record check as a condition of licensure, must
undergo a fingerprint based criminal history check if directed by

fulfill all other renewal requirements, but a report must be received
by the Council from the Texas Department of Public Safety and the
Federal Bureau of Investigation before a license will be renewed.
(d) Applicants and licensees who hold a license issued
by the Council or one of its member boards, and who underwent a fingerprint-based
criminal history record check as part of the licensing process for
that license, do not need to undergo another check.
