IN RE:

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would amend Chapter 122, Human Resources Code, by adding Section 122.0096 to require the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) to notify the State Auditor's Office (SAO) if the TWC determines that a state agency did not comply with certain requirements related to procuring products and services from community rehabilitation programs. In addition, the bill would authorize the TWC to request that the SAO conduct an audit of such a state agency to determine compliance with Chapter 122, Human Resources Code.
The SAO and TWC indicate that there would be no significant fiscal impact.
Local Government Impact
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
