Fiscal Detail and Notes
While the Department of Human Services is expected to incur additional costs in implementing this legislation, the bill does not allow the use of General Fund funding for these costs   The additional workload will not begin until the Attorney General notifies the Department that additional funding is available and has been designated for this purpose. The revenue source identified in the bill is not a predictable source of funding, therefore collections cannot be estimated at this time.
