PART 7. TEXAS COMMISSION ON LAW ENFORCEMENT
CHAPTER 215. TRAINING AND EDUCATIONAL PROVIDERS
The Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (Commission) adopts amended 37 Texas Administrative Code §215.13, Risk Assessment, with non-substantive changes to the proposed text as published in the December 22, 2023, issue of the Texas Register (48 TexReg 7879). The rule will be republished.
This adopted amended rule allows for a training provider's licensing examination passing rate to be calculated across all exam attempts, instead of only first attempts by students. This will encourage training providers to provide further educational support for students while continuing to maintain minimum standards for licensing examinations.
No comments were received regarding adoption of the amendment as proposed.
The amended rule is adopted under Texas Occupations Code §1701.151, General Powers of the Commission; Rulemaking Authority and §1701.254, Risk Assessment and Inspections. Texas Occupations Code §1701.151 authorizes the Commission to adopt rules for the administration of Occupations Code Chapter 1701. Texas Occupations Code §1701.254 requires the Commission to adopt rules to establish a system for placing a training provider on at-risk probationary status, which includes prescribing the criteria to be used by the Commission in determining whether to place a training provider on at-risk probationary status.
The amended rule as adopted affects or implements Texas Occupations Code §1701.151, General Powers of the Commission; Rulemaking Authority, and §1701.254, Risk Assessment and Inspections. No other code, article, or statute is affected by this adoption.

The Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (Commission) adopts amended 37 Texas Administrative Code §217.1, Minimum Standards for Enrollment and Initial Licensure, with non-substantive changes to the proposed text as published in the December 29, 2023 issue of the Texas Register (48 TexReg 8189). The rule will be republished.
This adopted amended rule conforms with the addition of Texas Occupations Code §1701.3095 and the amendment to Texas Occupations Code §1701.451 made by Senate Bill 252 (88R). Texas Occupations Code §1701.3095 requires the Commission to issue a license to an otherwise qualified legal permanent resident of the United States who is an honorably discharged veteran of the armed forces of the United States with at least two years of service before discharge and has applied for United States citizenship. Texas Occupations Code §1701.451(a)(3)(B)(x) requires law enforcement agencies, before hiring a licensee, to obtain and review proof that the licensee is a United States citizen or a legal permanent resident of the United States who is an honorably discharged veteran of the armed forces of the United States with at least two years of service before discharge and has applied for United States citizenship.
This adopted amended rule also conforms with the amendment to Texas Occupations Code §1701.310 made by House Bill 2183 (88R). Texas Occupations Code §1701.310(b)-(b-3) allows for a county jailer appointed on a temporary basis to have their temporary appointment extended for six months by the Commission under certain conditions and allows for a person whose county jailer license has become inactive to be appointed as a county jailer on a temporary basis.
One comment was received supporting the adoption of the amendment as proposed. State Senator Carol Alvarado, the author of Senate Bill 252 (88R), appreciates the Commission's diligent efforts to implement the bill.
The amended rule is adopted under Texas Occupations Code §1701.151, General Powers of the Commission; Rulemaking Authority. Texas Occupations Code §1701.151 authorizes the Commission to adopt rules for the administration of Occupations Code Chapter 1701.
The amended rule as adopted affects or implements Texas Occupations Code §1701.151, General Powers of the Commission; Rulemaking Authority, §1701.3095, Licensing of Certain Veterans Who Are Legal Permanent Residents, §1701.310, Appointment of County Jailer; Training Required, and §1701.451, Preemployment Procedure. No other code, article, or statute is affected by this adoption.
