The bill proposes an amendment to Chapter 318 of the Government Code by adding Section 318.004, which establishes new requirements for legislation that seeks to create or expand an occupational license. Specifically, it mandates that any such bill must include a statement prepared by the Legislative Budget Board indicating whether a review of the proposed legislation has been requested by a member of the legislature under Section 325.023. Additionally, if applicable, any report regarding the legislation prepared under that section must also be attached.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that the required items must be printed as part of the committee report for the bill and included in all subsequent printings, ensuring they remain with the bill throughout the legislative process, including its submission to the governor. The provisions of this act are set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
