Fiscal Detail and Notes
	This bill amends language enacted in Public Law 2021, chapter 752 associated with collective bargaining between school administrative units and the bargaining agents for teachers within the school administrative units to clarify that collective bargaining agreements in school administrative units cannot waive the right to bargain over wages, hours, working conditions and contract grievance arbitration. Public Law 2021, chapter 752 included ongoing General Fund appropriations of $52,200 per year beginning in fiscal year 2022-23 to reimburse certain school administrative units for the mandated costs associated with the provisions included in that legislation. This bill does not change the fiscal impact of that enacted bill.
