HB 358 -- BARBER LICENSES

SPONSOR:  Boykins

COMMITTEE ACTION:  Voted "do pass by consent" by the Committee on
Professional Registration and Licensing by a vote of 16 to 0.

This bill allows barbers whose licenses have lapsed for over two
years but less than five years to have their licenses reinstated
by making application to the State Board of Barber Examiners,
successfully passing the practicum portion of the state licensing
exam, and paying the appropriate fees.

FISCAL NOTE:  No impact on state funds.

PROPONENTS:  Supporters say that the bill just allows those
licensees who have decided to get out of the business for
financial reasons to come back without going through the entire
licensing process.

Testifying for the bill were Representative Boykins; State Board
of Barber Examiners; Twdaryll Blackwell; Sidney Harvey; and
Division of Professional Registration.

OPPONENTS:  There was no opposition voiced to the committee.
