DOA:......Mott, BB0264 - DSPS Revenue Retention
For 2023-2025 Budget -- Not Ready For Introduction
An Act ...; relating to: the budget.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
SAFETY AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
Professional licensure
Licensing fee revenue
Current law generally appropriates funding for the licensing, rule-making, and regulatory functions of DSPS for professional credentials and other approvals using 90 percent of revenues from the fees paid for those credentials and other approvals. The remaining 10 percent of these revenues are instead credited as GPR in the general fund.
The bill eliminates the exception whereby 10 percent of these revenues are credited as GPR and instead appropriates 100 percent of these revenues to DSPS for the purposes described above.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
Section
1. 20.165 (1) (g) of the statutes is amended to read:
20.165 (1) (g) General program operations. The amounts in the schedule for the licensing, rule making rule-making, and regulatory functions of the department, other than the licensing, rule-making, and credentialing functions of the medical examining board and the affiliated credentialing boards attached to the medical examining board and except for preparing, administering, and grading examinations. Ninety percent of all All moneys received under chs. 440 to 480, except subchs. II and IV to IX of ch. 448, ch. 460 and ss. 440.03 (13), 440.05 (1) (b), 458.21, and 458.365, less $10 of each renewal fee received under s. 452.12 (5);, and all moneys transferred from the appropriation under par. (i); and all moneys received under s. 440.055 (2), shall be credited to this appropriation.
****Note: Per my note in the previous version, I modified the appropriations to match their description so that the affiliated credentialing boards attached to the Medical Examining Board under ch. 448 are under the (hg) appropriation. In this version, I also realized that there is one other affiliated credentialing board attached to the MEB that is not in ch. 448, the Massage Therapy and Bodywork Therapy Affiliated Credentialing Board. I therefore also added references to ch. 460.
Section
