FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
Sections 345.015- 345.240 – Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology Interstate Compact
Oversight assumes the proposal adopts the Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology 
Interstate Compact.  The compact creates a joint public agency known as the Audiology and 
Speech-Language Pathology Compact Commission. The Department of Commerce and 
Insurance (DCI) has powers and duties as listed in the compact and shall enforce the provisions 
and rules of the compact. DCI shall provide for the development, maintenance, and utilization of 
a coordinated database and reporting system containing licensure, adverse action, and 
investigative information on all licensed individuals in member states.
Officials from the Department of Commerce and Insurance (DCI) state that it is uncertain if 
the compact (Sections 345.015 – 345.085) would be enacted in FY23, FY24 or FY25. Once the 
compact is enacted the Division would have a fiscal impact of $3,000 to $6,000 estimated annual 
fees to participate in the compact.
Oversight assumes DCI is provided with core funding to handle a certain amount of activity 
each year. Oversight assumes DCI could absorb the stated anticipated costs related to this 
proposal. If multiple bills pass which require additional staffing and duties at substantial costs, 
DCI could request funding through the appropriation process.

1SEQ CHAPTER \h  1Bill as a whole: 
Officials from the Office of Administration - Administrative Hearing Commission, the 
Department of Health and Senior Services, the Department of Revenue, the Department of 
Public Safety (Fire Safety and Directors Office), the Missouri Department of Agriculture
and the  each assume the proposal will have no fiscal 
impact on their respective organizations. Oversight does not have any information to the 
contrary. Therefore, Oversight will reflect a zero impact in the fiscal note for these agencies.  
Rule Promulgation
Officials from the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules assume this proposal is not 
anticipated to cause a fiscal impact beyond its current appropriation. 
Officials from the Office of the Secretary of State (SOS) note many bills considered by the 
General Assembly include provisions allowing or requiring agencies to submit rules and 
regulations to implement the act. The SOS is provided with core funding to handle a certain 
amount of normal activity resulting from each year's legislative session. The fiscal impact for  L.R. No. 4028H.06T

this fiscal note to the SOS for Administrative Rules is less than $5,000. The SOS recognizes that 
this is a small amount and does not expect that additional funding would be required to meet 
these costs. However, the SOS also recognizes that many such bills may be passed by the 
General Assembly in a given year and that collectively the costs may be in excess of what the 
office can sustain with its core budget. Therefore, the SOS reserves the right to request funding 
for the cost of supporting administrative rules requirements should the need arise based on a 
review of the finally approved bills signed by the governor.
