CSHB 144 ON SECOND READING
(by King)
CSHB 144, A bill to be entitled An Act relating to plans for the management and inspection of transmission and distribution poles.
CSHB 144 - POINT OF ORDER
Representative Cain raised a point of order against further consideration of CSHB 144 under Rule 4, Section 40, and Rule 11, Section 2, of the House Rules. The speaker sustained the point of order, announcing his decision to the house as follows:
Mr. Cain raises a point of order against further consideration of the CSHB 144 under Rule 4, Section 40, and Rule 11, Section 2, on the grounds that the committee substitute is not germane.
The introduced bill related to the management and inspection of distribution poles. The committee substitute adds transmission poles. While the terms "distribution" and "transmission" are often used together in Chapter 38, Utilities Code, this is not always the case and it is not clear from the substitute's plain language that the addition of the term "transmission" has no substantive effect. The substitute is not germane because it adds a second distinct proposition to that in the introduced bill. 45 H. Jour. 617 (1937), as printed at H. Rules Manual pp. 206-207.
Accordingly, the point of order is well-taken and sustained. Pursuant to Rule 4, Section 41, the bill is returned to the Committee on Calendars.
CSHB 144 was returned to the Committee on Calendars.
