FISCAL ANALYSIS



ASSUMPTION



Officials from the Office of the Secretary of State, the Office of the Attorney General, the Office of Administration, Division of Design and Construction, and the Department of Transportation assume this proposal would have no impact on their organizations.



Oversight assumes some political subdivisions could realize savings on contracts with businesses which would no longer be required to pay the state prevailing wage. Oversight assumes that such savings would be insignificant since the federal prevailing wage law would govern most contracts with government organizations.
