Bill
Summary: SB 1200 would require the Board of State and Community
Corrections (BSCC) to include a requirement for the training of
probation officers on domestic violence, including the nexus
between animal cruelty and violence against persons.
Additionally, this bill would require the Department of Justice
(DOJ) to include information concerning arrests for animal
cruelty in its annual report, as specified.
*********** ANALYSIS ADDENDUM - SUSPENSE FILE ***********
The following information is revised to reflect amendments
adopted by the committee on May 27, 2016
Fiscal
Impact:
Data reporting : Likely minor non-reimbursable local costs
(Local Funds/General Fund*) for reporting. Staff notes prior
decisions issued by the Commission on State Mandates
SB 1200 (Jackson) Page 1 of
?
(02-TC-04, 02-TC-11, 07-TC-10) determined the relevant code
sections applicable to the provisions of this bill do not
impose state-mandated requirements on local agencies, however,
these costs could potentially be subject to Proposition 30
funding requirements.
DOJ annual report : Minor, absorbable costs (General Fund) for
DOJ to include arrest data for animal cruelty in its annual
report.
*Proposition 30 (2012) exempts the State from mandate
reimbursement for realigned programs including the provision of
public safety services, including the employment and training of
law enforcement personnel, and the related reporting
responsibilities of local agencies. However, legislation enacted
after September 30, 2012, that has an overall effect of
increasing the costs already borne by a local agency for levels
of services mandated by 2011 Realignment Legislation, applies to
local agencies only to the extent that the State provides annual
funding for the cost increase.
Committee
Amendments: Strike Section 1 of the bill, which adds Section
6037 to the Penal Code, that requires the BSCC to include a
training requirement for probation officers, as specified.
