IN RE:
SB1011 by Parker (Relating to the punishment for the offense of trafficking of persons.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would increase the penalty for the offense of trafficking of persons from a second degree felony to a first degree felony if the actor recruited, enticed, or obtained the trafficked person from a correctional facility while the trafficked person was confined in the facility.

It is assumed that any fiscal impact and any impact on state correctional populations or on the demand for state correctional resources would not be significant.

Local Government Impact

It is assumed that any fiscal impact to units of local government associated with enforcement, prosecution, supervision, or confinement would not be significant.
