Committee on Judicial Affairs By: Thompson
House
Austin, Texas
FROM: John Keel, Director
In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on HB1516 ( Relating
to the creation of a record keeping system for assisting law
enforcement in the location of missing children.) this office
has detemined the following:
Biennial Net Impact to General Revenue Funds by HB1516-As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
It is projected that the Department of Health and the Department
of Public Safety could absorb the additional workload associated
with the provisions of this bill within existing resources.
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government
is anticipated. It is estimated that some costs would be incurred
by local registration districts; however, the costs will be
distributed among approximately 600 locations. Large metropolitan
areas such as Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, and San Antonio would
be disproportionately affected. Some local areas which are
not automated would have higher costs.
