FISCAL NOTE, 82ND LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
March 9, 2011

TO:
Honorable Robert Duncan, Chair, Senate Committee on State Affairs
 
FROM:
John S O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
SB567 by Williams (Relating to the Texas Life, Accident, Health, and Hospital Service Insurance Guaranty Association.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend the Insurance Code relating to Texas Life, Accident, Health, and Hospital Service Insurance Guaranty Association. 

Based on the analysis provided by Texas Department of Insurance (TDI), it is assumed that any costs associated with the implementation of this bill would be absorbed within existing agency resources. Also based on information provided by TDI, this analysis assumes that implementation of the bill would result in a small one-time revenue gain ($24,150 in fiscal year 2012) in General Revenue-Dedicated Texas Department of Insurance Fund 36 from filing fees. Since General Revenue-Dedicated Texas Department of Insurance Fund 36 is a self-leveling account, this analysis also assumes that any additional revenue resulting from the implementation of the bill would accumulate in the account fund balances and that the department would adjust the assessment of the maintenance tax or other fees accordingly in the following year.


Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
