LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD
Austin, Texas
 
FISCAL NOTE, 79TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
April 22, 2005

TO:
Honorable Steve Ogden, Chair, Senate Committee on Finance
 
FROM:
John S. O'Brien, Deputy Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
SB1617 by Ogden (Relating to the powers, duties, and functions of the Legislative Budget Board.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill relates to the powers, duties and functions of the Legislative Budget Board (LBB).  Specifically the bill would recognize certain duties of the Criminal Justice Policy Council that have been absorbed by the LBB with an annual cost of approximately $270,000 each fiscal year.  These costs are offset by other provisions of the bill that would result in some savings.  Therefore, the overall fiscal impact of the bill is projected to be minimal.


Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
