The Texas State Board of Dental Examiners adopts repeal of rule §110.7 relating to portability. This rule is adopted without changes to the proposed text as published in the March 9, 2018, issue of the Texas Register (43 TexReg 1373).

This rule is being repealed because it was improperly adopted at the January 13, 2018 meeting. The repeal will allow for the proper adoption of a new rule.

The Board received no comments.

Rule §110.7 is repealed under Texas Occupations Code §254.001(a). The Board interprets §254.001(a) to give the Board authority to adopt rules necessary to perform its duties and ensure compliance with state law relating to the practice of dentistry to protect the public health and safety.

No other statutes, articles, or codes are affected by the rule.
