LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
The Optometry Practice Act provides for the licensure and regulation of the practice of optometry by the 11-member State Board of Optometry within the Department of Consumer Affairs. Under the act, members of the board hold office for a term of 4 years and serve until the appointment and qualification of a successor or until a year after the expiration of the term for which the member was appointed, whichever occurs first.
This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to that term of office provision.
