IN RE:
HB3317 by Sanford (Relating to continuing education requirements regarding autism awareness for peace officers.), As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would amend the Occupations Code to require peace officers to complete a training and education program related to autism awareness once every two years. This analysis assumes that implementing the provisions of the bill could be absorbed within existing Commission on Law Enforcement resources. The bill would take effect September 1, 2015.
Local Government Impact
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
