At its February 25, 2013 meeting, the CPRIT Oversight Committee
approved proposed changes to existing agency rules and the addition of
three new rules. The changes proposed are designed to implement many of
the State Auditor’s recommendations concerning ethics, conflicts of
interest, grant review and documentation of the agency’s grant
processes.
The proposed rule changes and new rules appear in the March 15, 2013 edition of the Texas Register.
Public comment is accepted for 30 days following publication and is
due no later than 5:00 pm on April 15, 2013. At its meeting in late
April, the Oversight Committee expects to consider final rules
reflecting the comments received.
Individuals or organizations interested in providing input on the
rule changes and new rules may do so by sending written comments to Ms.
Kristen Pauling Doyle, General Counsel, Cancer Prevention and Research
Institute of Texas, P. O. Box 12097, Austin, Texas 78711. Comments may
also be submitted electronically to kdoyle@cprit.state.tx.us or by facsimile transmission to 512/475-2563. Comments must be received no later than 5:00 pm on April 15, 2013. |
