What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, certain persons who use pesticides must be licensed by the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP). The licensing requirement does not apply to a veterinarian or a veterinary technician who uses a pesticide in the course of his or her practice, but a veterinary clinic at which pesticides are repackaged or used must have a veterinary clinic permit issued by DATCP.
This bill eliminates the requirement that a veterinary clinic at which pesticides are repackaged or used have a veterinary clinic permit issued by DATCP.

Current law requires the Veterinary Examining Board to promulgate rules requiring training and continuing education sufficient to assure competency of veterinarians and veterinary technicians in the use and disposal of pesticides. This bill generally prohibits the board from requiring training and continuing education concerning the use and disposal of pesticides.
