	This bill also includes Other Special Revenue Funds deallocations of $375,765 per year beginning in fiscal year 2007-08 as a result of the repeal of the requirement that school personnel pay for the cost associated with criminal history record checks and fingerprinting.  The dedicated account is no longer needed as no more revenue will be coming from school personnel.
