                           FISCAL NOTE
                       74th Regular Session

                          April 10, 1995



 TO:     Honorable Keith Oakley, Chair          IN RE:  House Bill No. 2617
         Committee on Public Safety                     By: Oakley
         House of Representatives
         Austin, Texas






FROM: John Keel, Director

In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on House Bill No.
2617 (relating to the operation and management of the Bill
Blackwood Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas and to
membership on that institute's advisory board) this office has
determined the following:

The bill would  eliminate the requirement that the Bill Blackwood
Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas be operated as a
joint program between Sam Houston State University, Texas A&M
University, and Texas Woman's University.  The bill would also
modify the membership of the Institute's advisory board by
abolishing those appointments made by the presidents of Texas A&M
University and Texas Woman's University.


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