The Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) adopts an amendment to 22 TAC §531.18 concerning Consumer Information Form 1-1 without changes to the proposed text as published in the June 11, 2010, issue of the Texas Register (35 TexReg 4848) and will not be republished. The amendment would add a reference to the TREC website to download the form.

The reasoned justification for the amendment is clarification of where consumers and licensees may obtain information provided by the agency.

No comments were received on the amendment to the rule as proposed.

The amendment is adopted under Texas Occupations Code, §1101.151, which authorizes the Texas Real Estate Commission to make and enforce all rules and regulations necessary for the performance of its duties and to establish standards of conduct and ethics for its licensees in keeping with the purpose and intent of the Act to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Act.

The statute affected by this adoption is Texas Occupations Code, Chapter 1101. No other statute, code or article is affected by the amendment to the rule.
