Substitute (S-1)..

To reduce from 2,000 to 1,800 the hours of instruction at a “licensed barber college” that an individual must accumulate before he or she is allowed by the state to earn a living at this trade. Also, to add new license restrictions and requirements for a barber whose experience was gained in a county that state agency staffers regard as not having "generally available" records.

With the recommendation that the amendment be adopted and that the bill then pass.

To prohibit a barber whose experience was gained in a county that state agency staffers regard as not having "generally available" records from substituting experience for mandated hours of instruction in "safety and sanitation" and in state laws and regulations.

To tie-bar the bill to House Bill 5396, meaning this bill cannot become law unless that one does also. HB 5396 would also slightly reduce the number of hours of instruction that a licensed barber college must offer.

To concur with the House-passed version of the bill.
