Tex. Occupations Code § 507.056: GROUNDS FOR REMOVAL.

(a) It is a ground for removal from the executive council that a member:

(1) does not have at the time of taking office the qualifications required by Section 507.051;

(2) does not maintain during service on the executive council the qualifications required by Section 507.051;

(3) is ineligible for membership under Section 507.052 or 507.053;

(4) cannot, because of illness or disability, discharge the member's duties for a substantial part of the member's term; or

(5) is absent from more than half of the regularly scheduled executive council meetings that the member is eligible to attend during a calendar year without an excuse approved by a majority vote of the executive council.

(b) The validity of an action of the executive council is not affected by the fact that it is taken when a ground for removal of an executive council member exists.

(c) If the executive director has knowledge that a potential ground for removal exists, the executive director shall notify the presiding officer of the executive council of the potential ground. The presiding officer shall then notify the appointing authority and the attorney general that a potential ground for removal exists. If the potential ground for removal involves the presiding officer, the executive director shall notify the next highest ranking officer of the executive council, who shall then notify the appointing authority and the attorney general that a potential ground for removal exists.
