FISCAL NOTE, 78TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION

May 22, 2003

TO:	Honorable Teel Bivins, Chair, Senate Committee on Finance
FROM:	John Keel, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	HB3305 by Berman (Relating to certain surcharges assessed and collected by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission.), Committee Report 2nd House, Substituted

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

 The bill would amend the Alcoholic Beverage Code to strike the statutory requirement that the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission set fee and surcharge levels equal to appropriations.  Any net gain to General Revenue for this provision would depend on the level of legislative appropriations to the Alcoholic Beverage Commission. 

Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
