No More TAC Titles Affected Inquiry System
In Chapter 9 of Researching Texas Law (pp. 194-95), we discuss briefly the TAC Titles Affected Inquiry System. This tool has been removed from the Secretary of State’s website, and the web address that we provide on page 194 is no longer functional.
To update the Texas Administrative Code online, follow the steps below:
Assume for purposes of this example that a researcher has found a citation to 1 Tex. Admin. Code § 175.3 (2008). To update this section online, the best place to go is the TAC Viewer on the Secretary of State’s website. The rule includes a source note, which appears at the end of the rule. For § 175.3, the source note reads as follows:
Source Note: The provisions of this §175.3 adopted to be effective December 19, 2007, 32 TexReg 9323; amended to be effective December 8, 2008, 33 TexReg 9971
From this note, the reader would know that the section was amended on December 8 and that this amendment appears on page 9971 of volume 33 of the Texas Register.
