Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB1078 by Oliverson (relating to waiving certain driver ’s license and handgun license fees for certain applicants who hold a certification in cardiopulmonary resuscitation.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted

The fiscal implications of the bill cannot be determined at this time as there would be an indeterminate loss of state fee revenue associated with the provisions of the bill.

According to the Comptroller of Public Accounts, the fiscal impact of the bill cannot be determined because the Department of Public Safety (DPS) does not have data pertaining to the number of applicants that apply for an original or renewed driver license or a handgun license that hold certificates in cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Absent this data on the total number of applicants subject to the bill's provisions, the cost to DPS and associated reduction in state fee revenue is unknown.

Local Government Impact

No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
