The general
operating expenses of this study are projected to be $2,360 in fiscal year
2025-26 and $1,400 in fiscal year 2026-27. The Legislature’s proposed budget
for the 2026-2027 biennium includes $22,196 in each of fiscal years 2025-26
and 2026-27 for the costs of legislative studies, as well as $8,265 in
projected balances from fiscal year 2024-25 and $33,073 of balances carried
over from prior years for this purpose. Whether these amounts are sufficient
to fund all studies will depend on the number of studies authorized by the
Legislative Council and the Legislature. |
