FISCAL NOTE, 84TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
April 12, 2015

TO:
Honorable René Oliveira, Chair, House Committee on Business & Industry
 
FROM:
Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB2391 by Bohac (Relating to the redemption of certain stored value cards, including gift cards, for cash.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would require a seller, at the consumer's request, to refund the balance of certain stored value cards in cash, if that stored value card was redeemed in person to make a purchase and has a balance of less than $2.50 remaining following the redemption. Based on the analysis of the Comptroller of Public Accounts, implementation of the provisions of the bill is not anticipated to have a significant fiscal impact.

Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
