FISCAL NOTE

Senate Bill 15 as introduced could increase the financial obligations of the State Department of Education, to reimburse experts and members of instructional materials review committees, established by the State Superintendent of Education to review and rate the quality and alignment of instructional materials, for per diem and travel expenses from funds appropriated to the Department. The amount of the increased obligation is undetermined, but would be dependent upon: (1) the number of committees convened; (2) the number of members on each committee, and (3) the number of days that each committee meets.
