LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 85TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION April 2, 2017 TO: Honorable Joe Moody, Chair, House Committee on Criminal Jurisprudence FROM: Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB1935 by Frullo (Relating to the carrying of certain knives.), As Introduced No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend the Education Code and the Penal Code as they relate to the punishment for certain weapons offenses involving a knife. Under the provisions of the bill, schools would be required to expel a student for conduct involving certain types of knives and certain knives would no longer be defined as illegal. The Texas Education Agency, Texas Department of Public Safety, Office of the Governor, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and Office of Court Administration do not anticipate a significant fiscal impact from implementing the provisions of the bill. This analysis assumes the provisions of the bill addressing felony sanctions would not result in a significant impact on the demand for state correctional resources.

Local Government Impact According to Tarrant County Juvenile Services, no fiscal impact is anticipated.
