FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
Officials from the Department of Agriculture, Department of Public Safety – Missouri State Highway Patrol, and the – Director’s Office assume the proposal would have no fiscal impact on their agencies.
Officials from the Office of State Courts Administrator assume the proposed legislation would have no fiscal impact on the courts.
Officials from the Office of the State Public Defender (SPD) assume increasing penalties on existing crimes, or creating new crimes, will require more SPD resources. While the number of new cases (or cases with increased penalties) may be too few or uncertain to request additional appropriations for this specific bill, the SPD will continue to request sufficient appropriations to provide competent and effective representation in all its cases.
Oversight assumes the Office of the State Public Defender (SPD) could absorb the costs of the proposed legislation within existing resources. Oversight assumes any significant increase in the workload of the SPD would be reflected in future budget requests.
Officials from the Office of Prosecution Services did not respond to Oversight’s request for fiscal impact.
