 TO:     Honorable John Smithee, Chair          IN RE:  House Bill No. 1422
         Committee on Insurance                         By: Reyna

FROM: John Keel, Director

In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on House Bill No.
1422 (relating to certain fees charged by local recording agents)
this office has determined the following:

The bill would amend the Insurance Code to allow local recording
agents to charge a fee to clients for certain services if those
services were not anticipated in the commission paid to the agent
by an insurance company.


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