	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 1195, as introduced, Hill. Veterinary Medical Board: executive
officer.
   The Veterinary Medicine Practice Act provides for the licensure
and registration of veterinarians and registered veterinary
technicians and the regulation of the practice of veterinary medicine

establishing the board and authorizing the board to appoint an
executive officer as of January 1, 2017.
   This bill would extend the operation of the board and the
authorization of the board to appoint an executive officer to January
1, 2021.
