	This bill includes a General Fund appropriation of $262,556 in fiscal year 2011-12 and $79,780 in fiscal year 2012-13 for the Judicial Branch for one Bail Account Manager position and related costs to oversee a statewide system of the disbursement of bail finds.  It also includes a one-time General Fund appropriation of $200,000 in fiscal year 2011-12 for the necessary computer programming costs associated with the change in the priority.  Any increase in child support collections by the Department of Health and Human Services is expected to be minor and would be absorbed within existing budgeted resources.
