§ 153.0015. GUIDELINES FOR INPUT IN RULEMAKING. (a) The
board shall adopt guidelines to establish procedures for receiving
input during the rulemaking process from individuals and groups
that have an interest in matters under the board's jurisdiction,
including input from the Texas Physician Assistant Board and the
Texas State Board of Acupuncture Examiners. The guidelines must
provide an opportunity for those individuals and groups to provide
input before the board provides notice of the proposed rule under
Section 2001.023, Government Code.
(b) The guidelines adopted under this section shall also
include procedures for the board to receive comments on rules
recommended by the physician assistant board or acupuncture board
for adoption by the board.
(c) A rule adopted by the board may not be challenged on the
grounds that the board did not comply with this section. If the
board was unable to solicit a significant amount of input from the
public or affected persons early in the rulemaking process, the
board shall state in writing the reasons why the board was unable to
do so.
