ACTION Proposed
Preamble Texas Admin Code Rule
(a)It is the commission's policy to employ negotiated rulemaking procedures when appropriate. When the commission is of the opinion that proposed rules are likely to be complex, or controversial, or to affect disparate groups, negotiated rulemaking will be considered.

(b)When negotiated rulemaking is to be considered, the commission will appoint a convener to assist it in determining whether it is advisable to proceed. The convener shall have the duties described in Texas Government Code, Chapter 2008, and shall make a recommendation to the administrator to proceed or to defer negotiated rulemaking. The recommendation shall be made after the convener, at a minimum, has considered all of the items enumerated in Texas Government Code, §2008.052(c).

(c)Upon the convener's recommendation to proceed, the commission shall initiate negotiated rulemaking according to the provisions of Texas Government Code, Chapter 2008.

This agency hereby certifies that the proposal has been reviewed by legal counsel and found to be within the agency's legal authority to adopt.
