| IN RE: |
HB721 by Wilson (Relating to the release to mandatory supervision of certain inmates confined in a county jail.), Committee Report 2nd House, Substituted |
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would amend the Government Code as it relates to the release of certain inmates confined in a county jail to mandatory supervision. According to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice and the Board of Pardons and Paroles, the costs associated with the bill's provisions could be absorbed using existing resources.
This analysis assumes implementing the provisions of the bill would not result in a significant impact on state correctional populations or on the demand for state correctional resources.
Local Government Impact
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
