Bill > HB2039

This bill makes technical corrections to Arizona's veterinary board reporting requirements by updating gender-neutral language and clarifying the annual reporting process. Specifically, the bill changes the term "chairman" to "chairperson" and removes the word "annual" before the word "report" when describing the board's yearly submission to the governor. The report, which must be submitted by October 1 each year, will continue to include a summary of licensing actions (such as denied, suspended, or revoked licenses) and a financial statement for the previous fiscal year. Additionally, the bill preserves the existing provision that allows individual board members to submit separate reports with their personal comments on the board's licensing and disciplinary activities. These changes appear to be primarily stylistic and do not substantively alter the existing reporting requirements for the veterinary board.
