The bill would amend the Education Code relating to the regulation of child-care providers by the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) and local workforce development boards. According to information provided by TWC, implementation of the bill would result in a shift of existing appropriated funds from direct child care services to quality child care initiatives. TWCs analysis assumes there would be a reduction in the number of at-risk children being served by subsidized child care services. For fiscal year 2014, a reduction in available funds for At-Risk Direct Care estimated at $13.0 million would result in a reduction in the Average At-Risk Children Served Per Day of 2,825. For fiscal year 2015, a reduction in available funds for At-Risk Direct Care estimated at $13.7 million would result in a reduction in the Average At-Risk Children Served Per Day of 2,888. Based on information provided by the Texas Workforce Commission, it is assumed that duties and responsibilities associated with implementing the provisions of the bill could be accomplished by utilizing existing resources. Local Government Impact No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
