Fiscal Detail and Notes
	This amendment decreases the Other Special Revenue Funds cost of the bill by $72,356 in fiscal year 2003-04 and $195,364 in fiscal year 2004-05 due to removal of the requirement that the Workers' Compensation Board adopt rules to implement an electronic filing system.  As amended, this bill clarifies that employers are required to file reports with the Workers' Compensation Board only if the major substantive rulemaking process has been completed.
