If enacted, this bill would update current statutes by appropriating $2,594,840 from the state General Fund for fiscal year 2025-2026 specifically to the Law Enforcement Crime Victim Notification Fund, as established by section 41-2414 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. This appropriation aims to enhance the automated crime victim notification system and related software, ensuring that victims receive timely updates regarding their law enforcement crime reports.

Additionally, the bill includes a provision that exempts this appropriation from the lapsing provisions outlined in section 35-190 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which typically requires unspent funds to revert back to the General Fund at the end of the fiscal year. This change would allow the allocated funds to remain available for use beyond the fiscal year, thereby supporting ongoing efforts to improve victim notification services.
