Fiscal Detail and Notes
This amendment reduces the General Fund cost of the bill by $15,154 in fiscal year 2005-06 and $5,412 in fiscal year 2006-07 as a result of changing the application date to January 1, 2006 and the provision concerning contributions to the Maine Revenue Services' Maine Asthma and Lung Disease Research Fund Other Special Funds account.  It also makes adjustments to the appropriations and allocation section to reflect these changes based on the assumption that the contingency is fulfilled and the bill takes effect before December 2006.  This bill as amended may still result in a General Fund cost of up to $4,880 in fiscal year 2007-08 and $4,990 in fiscal year 2008-09 and will depend on the amount of revenue available to support the $2,000 annual transfer.
