Legislative Cost/Study
Removing the emergency preamble and clause from the bill will eliminate the $625 estimated fiscal year 2015-16 general operating costs of this study and increase the fiscal year 2016-17 estimated costs by $625, resulting in an estimated fiscal year 2016-17 cost of $2,750. The Legislature's budget includes $10,000 in fiscal year 2016-17 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.
