LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 1031, as introduced, Ochoa Bogh.
Healing arts boards: inactive license fees.
Existing law establishes healing arts boards in the Department of Consumer Affairs to ensure private businesses and professions deemed to engage in activities which have potential impact upon the public health, safety, and welfare are adequately regulated in order to protect the people of California. Existing law requires each healing arts board to issue inactive licenses to holders of active licenses whose license is not punitively restricted by that board. Existing law prohibits the holder of an inactive license from engaging in any activity for which an active license is required. Existing law requires the renewal fee for an active license to apply to an inactive license, unless the board establishes a lower fee.
This bill would instead require the renewal fee for an inactive license to be
1/2 of the amount of the fee for a renewal of an active license, unless the board establishes a lower fee. The bill would make conforming and other nonsubstantive changes.
