What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill makes a number of changes regarding the process for the granting of professional credentials by the Department of Safety and Professional Services and credentialing boards in DSPS, including all of the following:
1. The bill explicitly allows a credentialing board to delegate authority to DSPS to make determinations regarding whether an applicant satisfies the requirements to be granted a credential and authority to grant or deny a credential in accordance with that determination.

2. Once an application for a credential is considered complete following an investigation conducted by DSPS, DSPS must, for a credential that is granted by a credentialing board, either 1) forward the application to the board or the board's designee with DSPS's recommendation regarding approval or denial of the application or 2) if DSPS has been delegated the authority to make a determination on the application, directly approve or deny the application in accordance with its determination. If DSPS forwards an application to the board or the board's designee with a recommendation that it be approved, the bill requires that the application be considered automatically approved by the board on the tenth business day thereafter, unless the application is acted on sooner or unless the board or its designee takes certain other actions before that date.
