The Honorable Robert Olson, Chairperson
Senate Committee on Financial Institutions and Insurance
Statehouse, Room 236-E
Topeka, Kansas 66612
Dear Senator Olson:
SUBJECT: Fiscal Note for SB 202 by Senate Committee on Ways and Means
In accordance with KSA 75-3715a, the following fiscal note concerning SB 202 is
respectfully submitted to your committee.
SB 202 would amend Kansas Public Employee Retirement System (KPERS) working after
retirement rules. Under current law, if it is determined that a retiree had a prearranged agreement
with an employer prior to the retiree’s retirement and before the 60-day or 180-day waiting period,
the retiree’s benefits would be suspended for six months. SB 202 would remove the six-month
suspension of benefits for members who retire on and after January 1, 2018.
KPERS estimates the bill would have no actuarial effect on the retirement system. KPERS
notes the rule change would apply to a very small number of retirees. KPERS also estimates the
bill would have a negligible fiscal effect on agency administrative expenses and could be handled
within existing resources.


Sincerely,

Larry L. Campbell
Director of the Budget
