Explanation of State Expenditures: The bill assigns topics to the Interim Committee on Government that
must be studied in even-numbered years. If the committee were to hold additional meetings to address this
topic, there would be additional expenditures for legislator per diem and travel reimbursement for the
committee members. Any additional expenditures must be within the committee’s budget, which is
established by the Legislative Council.
The bill also repeals commissions and boards who have either disbanded or not held a meeting in the past
two years.
Salary Matrix Review: The bill specifies that the biennial salary matrix update is to affect law enforcement
officers employed by the Indiana State Police (including motor carrier inspectors and capitol police) as well
as the Indiana Gaming Commission, the Alcohol Tobacco Commission, the Department of Natural
Resources. Under the bill, the State Budget Agency shall review these salary matrices biennially on even
years. Specifying that this update must be performed biennially on even years going forward is expected to
have no impact on the State Budget Agency.
The Justice Reinvestment Advisory Council receives technical assistance from staff of the Indiana Supreme
Court’s Office of Judicial Administration. The Office can review the composition of community corrections
advisory boards with existing resources.
Indiana Policy Research Center: The bill establishes the Indiana Policy Research Center which is to be
staffed by the Indiana University’s Public Policy Institute (PPI). PPI currently provides staff and research
support for the Indiana Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations, which is repealed by the bill.
The bill specifies that the Indiana Policy Research Center shall perform research and analysis at the request
of the Legislative Council and/or the Legislative Services Agency.
