Continuing Program Impacts 
According to the 2021 sunset report, the Department of Public Safety had costs of $77,500 in FY 2020-21 
only for the committee to hire a consultant.  The fiscal note assumes that extending the repeal date by 
three months will not require additional expenditures for the consultant in order for DPS finish the 
work of the committee. Therefore, in FY 2022-23 only, workload in the DPS will continue for 
three months so the committee can complete the tasks identified in the bill. This work can be 
accomplished within existing appropriations. 
Effective Date 
The bill takes effect 90 days following adjournment of the General Assembly sine die, assuming no 
referendum petition is filed, except that sections 2 through 9, concerning the repeal of the committee 
and conforming amendments, take effect December 31, 2022.
