   New Act

          FISCAL NOTE (Department of Labor)                                    
          Due to the increase in workload, the Department would need

          STATE MANDATES NOTE (Dept. of Commerce and Community Affairs)        
          In the opinion of DCCA, HB 852 does not create a State mandate       
          under the State Mandates Act.                                        
          HOME RULE NOTE (Dept. of Commerce and Community Affairs)             
          HB 852 pertains to lawsuits arising from bids on public works        
          projects, and contains a provision prohibiting lawsuits relat-       
          ing to the Second Lowest Bidders' Protection Act being brought       
          against units of local government. The legislation does not          
          contain language indicating a pre-emption of home rule powers        
          and functions. Therefore, in the opinion of DCCA, HB 852 does        
          not pre-empt home rule authority.
