Fiscal Analysis
The bill would amend the Government Code and authorizes the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) to impose and collect an administrative fee for the electronic submission of documents to the agency. In addition, the OAG is authorized to establish rules as necessary to implement, adjust and administer the fee.
Methodology
The OAG indicates that the amount of new revenue generated, and deposited to the General Revenue Fund, related to the collection of the fee for electronic submission of documents would be $535,054 per fiscal year. This provision expires on September 1, 2015. Therefore, no revenue would be generated after fiscal year 2015.
