                        FEBRUARY 21, 2013

   An act to repeal Section 13357 of the Business and Professions
Code, relating to point-of-sale systems.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 482, Hill. Point-of-sale systems.
   Existing law provides the criteria and methodology, as specified,
by which local officials are to measure and verify the accuracy of a
point-of-sale system used by retail establishments as a means for
determining the price of an item being purchased by a consumer.
Existing law repeals those provisions on January 1, 2014.
   This bill would delete the repeal provision, thereby extending the
operation of those provisions indefinitely. By directing local
officials to follow a specified standard of inspection, this bill
would impose a state-mandated local program.
   The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.
   This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this
act for a specified reason.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 13357 of the Business and Professions Code is
repealed.
  SEC. 2.  No reimbursement is required by this act pursuant to
Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California Constitution because a
local agency or school district has the authority to levy service
charges, fees, or assessments sufficient to pay for the program or
level of service mandated by this act, within the meaning of Section
17556 of the Government Code.
