 TO:     Honorable Barry Telford, Chair         IN RE:  House Bill No. 384
         Committee on Pensions & Investments            By:  Junell
         House of Representatives
         Austin, Texas






FROM: John Keel, Director

In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on House Bill No.
384 (Relating to eligibility for service retirement from the
Employees Retirement System of Texas.) this office has determined
the following:

The bill would amend the law related to the Supplemental
Retirement Fund for state-paid commissioned peace officers and
certain Texas Department of Criminal Justice employees so that
commissioned peace officers employed by the Railroad Commission
of Texas are eligible to retire at the same age and years of
service as members of the Supplemental Retirement Fund.  
However, they would not receive the same benefits as members of
that Fund.



No significant fiscal implication to the State or units of local
government is anticipated.
