IN RE: |
HB4687 by Campos (Relating to the administration of funding for the coordination of mental health, substance use, and public health care services in this state.), As Introduced |
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
According to the Comptroller of Public Accounts, the fiscal impact on the state cannot be determined. Initial legislative appropriations to the trust fund created under the bill, interest and investment earnings, and the availability of funds for awarding grants are unknown.
The bill would require the Department of State Health Services (DSHS) to administrate the Mental Health, Substance Use, and Public Health Initiative Council. DSHS would be required to provide staff and facilities to assist the council in performing its duties. According to DSHS, 1.0 full-time equivalent (FTE) would be needed to coordinate required activities. It is assumed that any costs associated with the bill could be absorbed using existing resources.
The legislation would do one or more of the following: create or recreate a dedicated account in the General Revenue Fund, create or recreate a special or trust fund either in, with, or outside the Treasury, or create a dedicated revenue source. The fund, account, or revenue dedication included in the bill would be subject to funds consolidation review by the current Legislature.
Local Government Impact
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
