                      STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
                             RS 12411
Current practice allows probationers and parolees to leave the
state on the Interstate Compact Agreement and it costs
approximately fifty ($50.00) to one hundred ($100.00) dollars to
process the application.  Because of interstate compact rules,
the Department does not collect cost of supervision once the
offender has been accepted in the receiving state.  As a result,
all of the cost of the transfer is borne by the Idaho Department
of Correction.
This bill will allow the Department to charge all interstate
compact applicants a minimum of fifty ($50.00) or a maximum of
one hundred ($100.00) dollars as an interstate compact
application fee.
          
                          FISCAL IMPACT
The bill will provide the Idaho Department of Correction with up
to $40,000.00 annually for the purpose of administration and
membership in the Interstate Compact Agreement.
