BILL NUMBER:  AB 1232
  VETOED	DATE: 09/30/2015




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 1232 without my signature.

This bill provides a person who has been denied a license as an
insurance agent, broker, or solicitor an additional option to request
a hearing from the Department of Insurance Administrative Hearing
Bureau.

This bill would create a redundancy in government and removes an
impartial body from the appeal process when no demonstrable problem
has been proven to exist. The current process, which allows an
applicant to request a specific hearing date from the Office of
Administrative hearing, appears to be sufficient.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
