	Pension Note (Government Forecasting & Accountability)
	HB 0001 will have no fiscal impact upon any public pension fund or retirement system in the State of Illinois.

	State Debt Impact Note (Government Forecasting & Accountability)
	HB 0001 would not change the amount of authorization for any type of Stateissued bond, and, therefore, would not affect the level of State indebtedness.

	Judicial Note (Admin Office of the Illinois Courts)
	Based on a review of HB0001, the legislation would not increase or decrease the number of judges needed in the state of Illinois.

	Housing Affordability Impact Note (Housing Development Authority)
	This bill will have no effect on the cost of constructing, purchasing, owning, or selling a single-family residence.

	Home Rule Note (Dept. of Commerce & Economic Opportunity)
	HB 0001 does pre-empt home rule authority.

	State Mandates Fiscal Note (Dept. of Commerce & Economic Opportunity)
	This bill will not create a State mandate.

	Fiscal Note (Dept. of Public Health)
	Expenditures expected for the Illinois Department of Public Health based on the provisions of HB0001 would be $18 million. This includes the required personnel and licensing portal for this program.

	Balanced Budget Note (Office of Management and Budget)
	Please be advised that the Balanced Budget Note Act does not apply to House 0001, as it is not a supplemental appropriation that increases or decreases appropriations. Under the Act, a balanced budget note must be prepared only for bills that change a general funds appropriation for the fiscal year in which the new bill is enacted.
