|
This legislation
expands the circumstances under which the Department of Labor must disclose
employment data for certain individuals to include small claims court
disclosure proceedings and allows for the department to collect a reasonable
fee for providing the information. |
|
The department
has indicated that the Bureau of Unemployment Compensation will require one
Office Associate II position to perform the duties necessary to comply with
the requirements of this bill.
Although the bureau does currently have a vacant Office Associate II
position, it is federally funded and the duties required by this legislation
fall outside the scope of work that federal funds can be used for. |
|
This bill
includes Other Special Revenue Funds allocations of $96,489 in fiscal year
2015-16 and $101,189 in fiscal year 2016-17 and corresponding Federal
Expenditures Fund deallocations to the Employment Security Services program
within the Department of Labor to transfer and reallocate the cost of the
vacant Office Associate II position from the Federal Expenditures Fund to
Other Special Revenue Funds. This bill
also includes Other Special Revenue Funds allocations of $15,175 and $15,649
in fiscal years 2015-16 and 2016-17, respectively for the All Other
costs. This fiscal note assumes that
sufficient revenue will be generated from the fees to cover the personal
services and all other costs of the position. |
|
The Judicial
Department will experience an increase in the workload of District Court
Justices and a reduction in clerk duties.
The net impact is expected to be minor |
