TO: | Honorable James White, Chair, House Committee on Corrections |
FROM: | John McGeady, Assistant Director Sarah Keyton, Assistant Director Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | HB2897 by Parker (Relating to the provision of services by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's developmentally disabled offender program.), As Introduced |
The provisions of the bill addressed by this analysis would amend the Government Code as it relates to the provision of services by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's developmentally disabled offender program.
The bill does not expressly create a felony offense, increase the punishment for an existing misdemeanor to that of a felony, increase the punishment for an existing felony offense or category of felony level offenses, or change the eligibility of a person for felony community supervision, parole, or mandatory supervision. This analysis assumes the provisions of the bill would not result in a significant impact on the demand for state correctional resources.
