attorneys in other offices providing direct representation in the matter. New legal services are nominal, and costs are not
included in this request.

generate requests for legal services from AHD. New legal services are nominal, and costs are not included in this request.

FNS063 Individual State Agency Fiscal Note 1 Bill # 2417 HB
Part II: Narrative Explanation
II. A - Brief Description Of What The Measure Does That Has Fiscal Impact
Significant provisions of the bill and any related workload or policy assumptions that have revenue or expenditure impact on the responding agency
by section number.
This bill adds a new section to chapter 38.38, Washington Code of Military Justice, and intends to ensure the same
protections afforded to service members who are victims of a crime while in federal status exist when the same members
of our national guard are serving in a state capacity.
Because Washington National Guard places service members into duty status for victim support, there is no expected
additional fiscal impact to Military Department.
II. B - Cash receipts Impact
Cash receipts impact of the legislation on the responding agency with the cash receipts provisions identified by section number and when appropriate,
the detail of the revenue sources. Description of the factual basis of the assumptions and the method by which the cash receipts impact is derived.
