ASSUMPTION
Officials from the Department of Transportation, Office of the Attorney General, and the Office of State Public Defender assume no fiscal impact to their agencies.
Officials from the Department of Revenue (DOR) assume this proposal removes the word "court" from section 303.041 regarding issuance of an "order of court supervision" when an individual fails to maintain financial responsibility. The intent appears to place ths supervision responsibility on the DOR, which for the most part is already occurring today. Oversight assumes since DOR already assumes supervision of most financial responsibility cases that their cost to expand this supervision to all such cases would be minimal and could be absorbed from existing resources.

DESCRIPTION
This proposal would provide enforcement of administrative supervision orders by the Department of Revenue. If the director determines the owner of a motor vehicle has not maintained financial responsibility, or if the director determines as a result of an order of supervision that the operator of a motor vehicle has not maintained the financial responsibility as required in this chapter, the director shall thirty-three days after mailing notice, suspend the driving privilege of the owner or operator and/or the registration of the vehicle failing to meet such requirement.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
