FISCAL NOTE
74th Regular Session
May 1, 1995
TO: Honorable John Whitmire, Chair IN RE: Committee Substitute
Committee on Criminal Justice for
Senate Senate Bill
Austin, Texas No. 1337
FROM: John Keel, Director
In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on Senate Bill No.
1337 (relating to policies and procedures of the Commission on
Law Enforcement Officer Standards and Education, including
continuing education training requirements) this office has
determined the following:
The bill would make no appropriation but could provide the legal
basis for an appropriation of funds to implement the provisions
of the bill.
The bill would authorize the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement
Officer Standards and Education to suspend the license of a peace
officer who fails to complete certain required training. The
bill would require the commission to develop rules and reporting
requirements to implement the provisions of the bill.
The probable fiscal implication of implementing the provisions of
the bill during each of the first five years following passage
is estimated as follows:
Fiscal Probable Cost Out Change in
Year of Law Officer Number of State
Standards & Employees from
Education FY 1995
Fund 116
GR Consolidated
1996 $105,939 2.0
1997 105,939 2.0
1998 105,939 2.0
1999 105,939 2.0
2000 105,939 2.0
Similar annual fiscal implications would continue as long as the
provisions of the bill are in effect.
The fiscal implication to units of local government cannot be
determined.
