The additional workload associated with the minimal number of new cases
filed in the court system does not require additional funding at this
time.
The collection of additional fine revenue will increase General Fund and

| Fiscal Detail
and Notes |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Prohibiting the
sale and distribution of certain flavored tobacco products will reduce
General Fund revenue by $3,094,000 in fiscal year 2019-20 and $4,125,000 in
fiscal year 2020-21. |
|
Except for some
cigars and electronic smoking devices, the tobacco products that are
prohibited by this bill are included in the overall revenue that is used in
the calculation of the Master Settlement Agreement (Tobacco Settlement)
payments. Therefore, there would also be a decrease in Fund for a Healthy
Maine (FHM) revenue in the future. However, it is not known how much of the
FHM payment received annually is from the flavored products, so no estimate
of the revenue decrease is made at this time. |
