 Pension Note (Pension Laws Commission)
 Based on FY 1996 membership data supplied by the Department of Insurance, the Commission's actuary estimates that HB 2621 would increase the accrued liability of the Downstate Firefighters' pension funds by $175.1 million. The resulting increase in total annual cost is estimated to be $17.8 million, or 5.06% of payroll. The increase in accrued liability and annual cost would vary by individual fund and would increase commensurate with payroll.
