Greetings:
The TWIA Board’s Legislative & External Affairs Committee met on June 24 to continue planning legislative recommendations to the Board of Directors for the Association’s Biennial Report to the Texas Legislature.
The Committee directed staff to prepare additional information for Committee consideration on recommendations proposed by legislators and other stakeholders. TWIA will announce the Committee’s next meeting, which is expected to take place prior to the August 2 meeting of the Board of Directors.
The Biennial Report must be submitted to the Texas Legislature, the Insurance Commissioner, and the Sunset Advisory Commission in the year before a legislative session. By statute, the report must include:
- Any proposed changes in the laws relating to the regulation of TWIA,
- A statement of the reasons for the changes, and
- Any information regarding TWIA operations or procedures that is requested by the Texas Department of Insurance to be addressed in the report.
The most recent TWIA Biennial Report, published in 2020, is available on TWIA’s website.
The meeting materials and archived recording for the Committee meeting are available on our Archived Meetings page.
Should you have any questions, please contact me at JArmstrong@twia.org or (512) 637-4031.
Sincerely,
|
