Fiscal Note Summary
Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
The purpose of this bill is to require child-care subsidies to be based on monthly enrollment rather than daily attendance.
As written, this fiscal note has no impact on the Department as paying providers on the basis of enrollment is already required by 45 CFR 98.45(m)(2)(i).
