LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 81ST LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION April 9, 2009 TO: Honorable Jane Nelson, Chair, Senate Committee on Health & Human Services FROM: John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:SB2396 by Nelson (Relating to the repeal of obsolete or redundant reporting requirements of health and human services agencies.), As Introduced No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would abolish obsolete or redundant reporting requirements for health and human service agencies if the governor, lieutenant governor, speaker of the house, and presiding officers of certain committees make that determination. The bill would require the Health and Human Services Commission to identify reports that should be considered for abolition no later than December 1, 2009. Any report for which there is no objection as described by the bill would be abolished as of February 1, 2010. It is unclear as to what impact, if any, this bill would have on reporting requirements contained in the General Appropriations Act. The Act would take effect immediately if it receives a vote of two-thirds of all members elected to each house. If the Act does not receive the vote necessary for immediate effect, it would take effect September 1, 2009. Local Government Impact No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
