Office of Public Security
The Enacted Budget passed by the Legislature on May 1, 2003 makes no changes to the Executive Budget.
The Executive Budget recommends (analysis as of February 7, 2003):
· Creates the new agency of Office of Public Safety. The Office is responsible for the development and implementation of a comprehensive statewide counter-terrorism strategy designed to detect, protect against and respond to terrorist threats and events. The Office will operate a Counter-Terrorism Network to provide terrorism and security-related alerts to State and local law enforcement agencies. The Executive Budget also proposes the creation of a Cyber Security and Critical Infrastructure Coordination Program (CSCIC) that will operate within the Office. The Office will continually assess the vulnerability of the State's data and communications systems. CSCIC is also charged with the tasks of eliminating redundancies between the private sector and State/Federal government initiatives in relation to secure communication networks. CSCIC would also take on the responsibility of collecting geographic data for various State agencies including the Department of Transportation. The Office will be headquartered in New York City with a satellite office in Albany.
· An FTE level of 95, which represents a decrease of 75 positions from the current estimate of the FTE level on March 31, 2003. The additions are in the CSCIC with 38 FTEs being funded by the General Fund and 37 supported by Special Revenue Funds-Other.
· The 20 FTEs in the Administration program are being transferred from the Executive Chamber, as well as 38 new FTE positions. The 37 Special Revenue Funds-Other FTEs are being transferred from the Office for Technology (OFT) to the Office of Public Security to aid in the Cyber Security and Critical Infrastructure Coordination (CSCIC) Program. We are unsure how many of these FTEs will be PEF represented.
· The Executive proposes an $11,916,000 All Funds State Operations appropriation for State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2003-04. This includes $5.4 million for personal services.
