Fiscal Detail and Notes
Authorizing a joint standing committee to report out a bill subject to the mandate review and further stipulate that the bill may not be enacted until the mandate review procedure has been completed could restrict the ability of the Legislature to conduct its work.  The exact financial impact of this restriction can not be determined at this time.  The Department of Health and Human Services will require additional resources to perform the mandate reviews required in this bill.
