FISCAL ANALYSIS

ASSUMPTION

Officials from the Missouri Ethics Commission assume this proposal would not fiscally impact their agency.

FISCAL IMPACT - State Government FY 2000 FY 2001 FY 2002
(10 Mo.)
$0 $0 $0
FISCAL IMPACT - Local Government FY 2000 FY 2001 FY 2002
(10 Mo.)
$0 $0 $0
FISCAL IMPACT - Small Business
No direct fiscal impact to small businesses would be expected as a result of this proposal.

DESCRIPTION

The proposal would change the reporting deadline for quarterly campaign finance reports from the seventh to the fifteenth day following the calendar quarter. Thus, such deadlines would be: January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15 for the periods closing December 31, March 31, June 30 and September 30, respectively.

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