IN RE:	SB756 by Ogden (Relating to the requirement that the Board of Pardons and Paroles notify county law enforcement before considering the release of an inmate to that county.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend the Government Code to change certain notification deadlines applicable to the Board of  Pardons and Paroles. The bill would take effect September 1, 2005. Because the duties can be absorbed within existing resources, no significant fiscal impact to the State is anticipated.

Local Government Impact
