Title 37, Part 9
In accordance with Texas Government Code §2001.039, the Texas Commission on Jail Standards proposes to review all its rules, Texas Administrative Code Title 37, Part 9. The Administrative Rules Advisory Committee will review the rules and consider which, if any, need to be amended or repealed. Following the review, the Committee will give its recommendations to the Commission.
The Committee will consider the following:
- Do current facts, law, policy, and experience support retaining this rule?
- Are the initial factual, legal, and policy reasons for adopting this rule still relevant?
- Is this rule commonly violated? Would amending the rule improve compliance?
- Does this rule still reflect current practices?
- Rule Vagueness:
-- Is this rule so vague that it impedes jails’ ability to understand comply with it or it creates inconsistent rule interpretations? For example, does it use words such as "promptly," "regularly," or "as soon as possible?"
-- Can you amend the rule to reflect informal policies and guidance that staff created to enable jails to comply with this rule?
Comments on the review may be submitted to any of the following: TCJS Rule Review, attention: William Turner, P.O. Box 12985, Austin, Texas 78711-12985; Fax (512) 463-3185; e-mail: will.turner@tcjs.state.tx.us.
