Requiring criminal history record information about applicants for positions within a veterans' adult day health care program will increase General Fund revenue by a minor amount not requiring any change to the budget.  Additional costs to the Department of Public Safety associated with inspecting and licensing the facility can be absorbed with existing staff and within existing budgeted resources.  Other Special Revenue Funds revenue to the Department of Public Safety will increase by a minor amount from fees associated with this licensing.
