The Texas Appraiser Licensing and Certification Board (TALCB) proposes the repeal of §153.16, concerning Provisional License. The proposed repeal results from the Board's quadrennial rule review process.

The repeal of §153.16, Provisional License, is proposed because the TALCB no longer issues provisional licenses.

Kristen Worman, General Counsel, has determined that for the first five-year period the proposed repeal is in effect, there will be no fiscal implications for the state or for units of local government as a result of implementing the repeal. There is no anticipated impact on local or state employment as a result of implementing the repeal. There will be no impact to small businesses or micro-businesses as a result of implementing the repeal.

Ms. Worman has also determined that for the first five years the repeal is in effect the public benefit anticipated as a result of the repeal is greater clarity and consistency in TALCB's licensing processes.
