Section 29-5-12

Estimate of amount of money involved under provisions of certain bills.

(a) Every general bill creating, eliminating or affecting in any way, a state or local program, service, function or revenue source and which thereby requires the expenditure of county or municipal funds or thereby decreases or increases revenue collections by any county or municipality shall, before any vote is taken thereon in the Senate or House of Representatives, have endorsed thereon or attached thereto an estimate made by the Director of the Legislative Fiscal Office of the amount of money involved therein, and the anticipated increase in county or municipal spending or the decrease in county or municipal revenue collections under the provisions of the bill. In the event that insufficient data is available to formulate an estimate of the amount of money involved therein, the director shall note such fact on such endorsement or attachment which shall constitute compliance herewith.

(b) The fiscal note provided under this section shall be endorsed on the bill or attached thereto, and may be printed on the calendar of bills on third reading immediately following the title of the bill.

(c) The Director of the Legislative Fiscal Office is authorized to secure information, data, estimates and statistics directly from the employees and officials of the various departments, agencies, institutions, establishments, boards and commissions of the county and municipal governments of the state which is necessary for the director to fulfill the duties and functions imposed upon him by this section.
