Bill > A06517

This bill directs the Division of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS), a state agency responsible for supporting law enforcement and criminal justice programs, to expand its Crimes Against Revenue program to include every county in New York State and provide funding to each county. The Crimes Against Revenue program likely focuses on investigating and prosecuting financial crimes that deprive state or local governments of expected tax or revenue income. Currently, the program may be limited to only some counties, and this bill would mandate its comprehensive statewide implementation. The legislation will take effect on the first of April following its passage, with provisions allowing DCJS to prepare necessary rules and regulations in advance of the effective date. By ensuring all counties have access to this program and its associated funding, the bill aims to create a more uniform approach to combating revenue-related crimes across New York State.
