Bill	Veterinary Medical Board: application and examination: discipline and citation.	(1) Existing law, the Veterinary Medicine Practice Act, provides for the licensure and registration of veterinarians and the regulation of the practice of veterinary medicine, until January 1, 2022, by the Veterinary Medical Board in the Department of Consumer Affairs. Existing law, until January 1, 2022, authorizes the board to appoint an executive officer to perform duties delegated by the board. Existing law makes it a misdemeanor for any person to violate or aid or abet in the violation of the act. Under the act, the repeal of the provision establishing the board renders the board subject to review by the appropriate policy committees of the Legislature. The act restricts the review to those issues identified by the appropriate policy committees of the Legislature and prohibits that review from involving the preparation or submission of a sunset review document or evaluative questionnaire.	us/states/ca	California Legislature	20212022	AB 1535	California AB 1535 (20212022)	bill	Veterinary Medical Board: application and examination: discipline and citation.	enacted	Committee on Business and Professions	7	30	9	2021-02-19	2021-10-07	openstates	ocd-bill/f2338fa8-3cc7-41d3-81eb-d7c60228993c	http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220AB1535	7ca03674c230c218bc11a386e2ffb4a16264d5508ae78a9d9504a5940e9b6292	2026-07-01	https://data.openstates.org/daily/2026-07-01/public.pgdump	2026-07-06	reported	legislation bill us-ca
