FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
Officials of the following entities stated the proposal would have no direct
fiscal effect: State Tax Commission, House of Representatives, Senate, and
Governor.
Officials of the following stated they were uncertain of the fiscal effects
of the proposal: Department of Revenue; Department of Natural Resources;
Department of Mental Health; Office of Administration; Department of
Agriculture; Department of Elementary and Secondary Education; Department of
Insurance; Missouri Department of Conservation; Coordinating Board for Higher
Education; Department of Transportation; Department of Insurance; Department
of Labor and Industrial Relations.
Oversight assumes the amendment would have no direct or predictable fiscal
impact on any agency. The specific delegations of authority could have
impact, but those effects would have to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.
It is not possible to predict how many citizens would petition the
legislature regarding rules. Costs, if any, due to the need for additional
hearings would be a matter for budget decision items.
Advertisement costs for the proposal would be $3,990 per newspaper column
inch for three publications of the text of the proposal, the introduction,
title, fiscal note summary, and affidavit. The proposal would be on the
ballot for the November 1998 general election.

DESCRIPTION
This proposal would restrict state agencies authority to propose or adopt
rules, except rules relating to agency organization or internal management,
to those purposes and to the extent allowed by the legislature.
The proposal would also allow any citizen to petition the general assembly
concerning any agency rule or regulation upon grounds listed in the proposal.
The general assembly could, upon finding after hearing that the rule violates
the grounds listed, annul the rule or regulation by resolution adopted by
both chambers. The resolution would meet all passage requirements of a bill
but would not be subject to gubernatorial approval.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other
program, would not require additional capital improvements or rental space,
and would not affect total state revenue.
