Adopted Rule Reviews

Title 37, Part 9

The Texas Commission on Jail Standards reviewed Title 37 Texas Administrative Code, Chapter 251, concerning General; Chapter 255, concerning Rulemaking Procedures, and Chapter 269, Subchapter D, concerning Juvenile Justice Reports. The agency proposed the rule review in the December 23, 2022, issue of the Texas Register (47 TexReg 8759). No public comments were received.

In accordance with Texas Government Code §2001.039 and Government Code 511.009(5), the Commission readopts Chapters 251 and 255 because the reasons for their adoption continue to exist. However, it will repeal Chapter 269 Subchapter D because HB 1545 of the 87th Legislative Session repealed Government Code 511.009(a)(12), which required the Commission to report annually the juveniles in county jails. This concludes the review of chapters 251, 255, and 269 Subchapter D. The agency is submitting the proposed repeal contemporaneously with the closure of this review.
