FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
Officials of the Office of Administration - Division of Accounting, Office of
the Attorney General, and Office of the Governor assume that this proposal
would have no fiscal impact to their agencies.
Officials of the State Courts Administrator assume that there would be one or
more test cases to explore the parameters of the law, but would not
anticipate the impact upon the judiciary to be significant.
Oversight assumes that this proposal has the potential to result in
undetermined savings in the future to the State of Missouri in the form of
reduced awards.

0 0 0
FISCAL IMPACT - Local Government FY 1998 FY 1999 FY 2000

FISCAL IMPACT - Small Business
No direct fiscal impact to small businesses would be expected as a result of
this proposal.
DESCRIPTION
Current law allows the Governor to reduce the allocation of appropriations to
any department when there is a revenue shortfall during the fiscal year.
This proposal would provide that in that case, any claim against a budget
item so reduced would be reduced proportionally regardless of the fiscal year
in which the claim was received.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other
program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental
space.
