Commission on Quality of Care and Advocacy for Persons with Disabilities

The enacted budget makes no changes to the Executive Budget (analysis as of April 3, 2007).

The Executive Budget recommends (analysis as of February 2, 2007):

A FY 2007-08 workforce of 105, unchanged from SFY 2006-07. The following chart identifies adjustments in the current fiscal year’s FTEs along with the recommended differences in FY 2007-08 FTEs by program (if the FTE’s are the same the program is not listed):

The total appropriation for Personal Service is $6.3 million, a $.6 million (2.8%) decrease from SFY 2006-07. It is unclear how this can support the contractual increases for the estimated 105 FTEs proposed to staff the Commission. This issue should be clarified at statewide labor/management.

An All Funds decrease of $559,000 (-3.6%) from SFY 2006-07

The appropriation for the Technology Related Protection and Advocacy Program is called the Protection and Advocacy for Assistive Technology Program in the actual legislation. While the overall appropriation is reduced by $172,000 (- 43%) this reduction is completely in the maintenance undistributed appropriation. There is no appropriation for personal services in this program despite the fact that the budget shows 1 new FTE staffing that program. It is likely that this position will be funded from the maintenance undistributed appropriation. This issue should be clarified at Labor/Management.

The appropriation for the Technology Related assistance for Individuals with Disabilities is cut by $409,000 (- 37.6%). This reduction is completely in the maintenance undistributed appropriation. There is no appropriation for personal services in this program despite the fact that the budget shows 2 FTEs have been staffing that program since last year. It is likely that these positions are funded from the maintenance undistributed appropriation. This issue should be clarified at Labor/Management.

The Executive Budget shows that CQCAPD employed an estimated 75 employees under consultant contracts in SFY 2006-07 at an estimated cost of $3.9 million, or an average cost of $52,520 per consultant contract employee. It is estimated that the number of employees employed under consultant contracts will stay the same in SFY 2007-08. Consultant contract employees will be paid $4.0 million in SFY 2007-08 or an average cost of $53,346 per consultant contract employee, a 1% increase.

According to the Assembly the Commission staff will be relocated to Schenectady. $160,000 is appropriated for this purpose.
