Fiscal Note Summary
Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
This fiscal note only addresses the impact related to the one-time transfer of $2 million from the Unclaimed Property Trust Fund (1342).
WV Code §36-8-13 directs the Unclaimed Property Fund (1324), after expenses, to transfer remaining monies in the fund to the Unclaimed Property Trust Fund (1342). From monies in the Unclaimed Property Trust Fund, $1 million each year shall be transferred to the Prepaid Tuition Trust Escrow Fund (1326), then the remaining fund balance to the General Revenue fund.
This legislation would transfer one-time (on or before 7/1/2012) $2 million, that would normally be available to the General Revenue Fund, to the Supreme Court of Appeals Public Campaign Financing Fund (1690).
