Also makes technical changes. Effective immediately. PENSION NOTE, H-AM 1 (Pension Laws Commission) The fiscal impact of HB 2703 (H-am 1) cannot be calculated, as it depends on the amount of service credit transferred. The fiscal impact is expected to be very minor. FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 1 (State Employees Retirement Systems) It is not possible to determine the precise impact of HB 2703. Since an individual transferring credit from SERS to GARS must pay the full employer and employee contributions, the resulting cost impact would be very minor.
