Sec. 102.102. REMOVAL. (a) It is a ground for removal from the oversight committee that a member:
(1) is ineligible for membership under Section 102.101(e);
(2) cannot, because of illness or disability, discharge the member's duties for a substantial part of the member's term; or
(3) is absent from more than half of the regularly scheduled oversight committee meetings that the member is eligible to attend during a calendar year without an excuse approved by a majority vote of the committee.
(b) The validity of an action of the oversight committee is not affected by the fact that it is taken when a ground for removal of a committee member exists.
(c) If the chief executive officer has knowledge that a potential ground for removal exists, the chief executive officer shall notify the presiding officer of the oversight committee 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 chief executive officer shall notify the next highest ranking officer of the oversight committee, who shall then notify the appointing authority and the attorney general that a potential ground for removal exists.
