ASSUMPTION

Officials from the Department of Insurance, the Office of Administration, the
Department of Highways and Transportation, and the Department of Conservation
assume this proposal would no fiscally impact their agencies.

FISCAL IMPACT  - Local Government    FY 1997     FY 1998     FY 1999
                                    (10 Mo.)

DESCRIPTION

This proposal would extend to every motor vehicle liability policy coverage
to all vehicles owned by, leased to, or loaned to the insured individual.  An
individual with more than one liability policy would be allowed to collect
damages under each policy, except the liability payments may not exceed the
damages suffered by the individual.  Individuals would need to buy only one
liability insurance policy, no matter how many vehicles are owned.

This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other
program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental
space.
