Legislative Cost/Study
	The estimated per diem and expenses for legislators participating in this advisory group are projected to be $1,260 in fiscal year 2011-12.  This estimate assumes that 4 legislators pariticipate in 3 meetings.  The Legislature's proposed budget includes $10,000 in fiscal year 2011-12 for legislative studies.  Whether this amount is sufficient to fund all studies will depend on the number of studies authorized by the Legislative Council and the Legislature.
Fiscal Detail and Notes
