                          BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
                  (Executive Budget: pp. 307 - 312)

The Division of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) is an administering
agency for both State and Federal monies, which support programs
designed to combat crime, drug abuse and violence across the State. 


The Division is included in the Public Protection and General
Government appropriation bill.

The Executive recommends an All Funds appropriation of $207,723,000,
an increase of $21,473,100 over SFY 2001-02.

State Operations

The Executive proposes All Funds appropriations totaling $97,840,000,
an increase of $20,230,700 from SFY 2001-02.  This includes a General
Fund appropriation of $42,572,000, representing a decrease of $59,900
and a Federal appropriation of $53,818,000, an increase of
$20,290,600.  The State Operations appropriations include the
following proposals:
       
--     a $710,000 increase to reflect salary adjustments and other
       costs associated with Agency operations;
       
--     a $683,000 savings resulting from the reduction of 10 positions
       as a result of the enforcement of the hiring freeze and
       efficiencies in the civil fingerprint processing unit and other
       administrative areas;
       
--     a $218,000 savings resulting from the reduction of 5 positions
       by maximizing the use of Federal funds.  This will be
       accomplished by transferring Personal Service funded by the
       General Fund to positions that will be funded with Federal
       funds;
    
--     a $130,000 appropriation for the transfer of staff from the
       Crime Victims Board to consolidate administrative functions;
       and  

--     a $20,230,700 Federal Funds appropriation to support general
       administrative services.  A portion of this Federal funding,
       $10,000,000, has supported efforts to prepare the State's
       emergency response plan and to conduct a statewide "needs and
       risk" assessment of logistical capabilities and
       vulnerabilities.  The Federal funds will be used to provide
       needed equipment and training for local government response
       personnel.  The plan will also identify future activities such
       as the development of local emergency communication systems,
       training in the use of specialized technology and medical
       monitoring procedures. 
       
Aid to Localities

The Executive proposes All Funds appropriations for SFY 2002-03
totaling $109,883,000, an increase of $1,242,400, or 1.1 percent.  The
Executive proposes General Fund appropriations totaling $56,388,000,
an increase of $100,500 over SFY 2001-02 levels and Special Revenue
Federal appropriations of $148,395,000, an increase of $1,141,900 from
SFY 2001-02 levels.

In addition, the Executive proposes Special Revenue Other funding of
$5,100,000, reflecting no change from SFY 2001-02 levels.  These funds
are used to support various local criminal justice initiatives.

Article VII Proposals
       
The Executive proposes language to amend the Corrections Law related
to the Sex Offender Registry in order to meet Federal guidelines
essential to preserve the full Edward Byrne award.
