All monies in the long-term care system fund unexpended and unencumbered at the end of fiscal year 2007-2008 revert to the state general fund, subject to approval by the Arizona health care cost containment system administration.
The department shall report to the joint legislative budget committee by March 1 of each year on preliminary actuarial estimates of the capitation rate changes for the following fiscal year along with the reasons for the estimated changes. For any actuarial estimates that include a range, the total range from minimum to maximum shall be not more than two per cent. Before implementation of any changes in capitation rates for the long-term care program, the department of economic security shall report for review the expenditure plan to the joint legislative budget committee. Before the department implements any changes in policy affecting the amount, sufficiency, duration and scope of health care services and who may provide services, the department shall prepare a fiscal impact analysis on the potential effects of this change on the following year's capitation rates. If the fiscal analysis demonstrates that these changes will result in additional state costs of $500,000 or greater for a given fiscal year, the department shall submit the policy changes for review by the joint legislative budget committee.
Prior to the implementation of any developmentally disabled or long term care statewide provider rate increases not already specifically authorized by the legislature, court mandates or changes to federal law, the department shall submit a report for review by the joint legislative budget committee. The report shall include, at a minimum, the estimated cost of the provider rate increase and the ongoing source of funding for the increase.
The amounts above include $6,998,700 from the state general fund and $11,624,900 from matching federal expenditure authority to raise rates of community service providers and independent service agreement providers contracting with the division of developmental disabilities. This amount is estimated to be the equivalent of one hundred per cent of fiscal year 2007‑2008 market rates for all services on the published rate schedule. It is the intent of the legislature that the division request the Arizona health care cost containment system administration to approve a capitation rate increase retroactive to July 1, 2007 to make provider rate increases effective July 1, 2007. By July 1, 2007, the division shall obtain approval for a rate increase implementation proposal from AHCCCS. By August 1, 2007, the division shall submit the implementation plan for review by the joint legislative budget committee. The adjusted rates shall be implemented beginning with provider payments due for services performed in August 2007. Payment for retroactive reimbursement due for services provided in July 2007 shall be paid to providers no later than September 15, 2007.
The appropriated amount provides funding for a fiscal year 2007-2008 capitation rate increase of 4.0 per cent above fiscal year 2006-2007 excluding salary, benefits, and other statewide adjustments. The department shall reallocate resources within its existing budget to pay for any capitation rate increases above 5.0 per cent excluding salary, benefits, and other statewide adjustments without supplemental funding.

Of the $28,916,600 appropriated to GIITEM, $10,000,000 is to be used for the multijurisdictional task force known as the gang and immigration intelligence team enforcement mission (GIITEM). If the department of public safety uses any of the monies appropriated for GIITEM for an agreement or contract with a city, town, county or other entity to provide services for the GIITEM program, the city, town, county or other entity shall provide not less than fifteen per cent of the cost of the services and the department of public safety shall provide not more than eighty-five per cent of the cost for each agreement or contract. The distribution of these monies are contingent upon the department of public safety entering into a 287 memorandum of understanding with the United States department of homeland security. The $10,000,000 is to be used for functions relating to immigration enforcement, including border security and border personnel. As state and local law enforcement officers trained pursuant to a 287 memorandum of understanding come into contact with gang or suspected gang members and there is reason to believe that the individual has entered or remained in the United States illegally, the use of these monies is contingent upon law enforcement agencies verifying the immigration status of these individuals and taking appropriate action that will not jeopardize an ongoing investigation or damage an informant relationship with a law enforcement agency. The $10,000,000 is exempt from the provisions of section 35-190, Arizona Revised Statutes, relating to the lapsing of appropriations, except that all unexpended and unencumbered monies shall revert on June 30, 2009. The department shall submit an expenditure plan to the joint legislative budget committee for review prior to expending any monies not identified in the department's previous expenditure plans.

Of the $28,916,600 appropriated to GIITEM, $9,500,000 is to be used for one hundred department of public safety GIITEM personnel located anywhere within the state. The additional staff shall include at least fifty sworn DPS positions to be used for immigration enforcement and border security and up to fifty DPS positions to expand GIITEM's public awareness, investigation, and intelligence efforts. The additional positions would assist GIITEM in various efforts including, but not limited to: 1) arresting illegal aliens, 2) responding to and investigating complaints of employers hiring illegal aliens, 3) investigating crimes of identity theft in the context of hiring illegal aliens and the unlawful entry into the country, and 4) taking enforcement action, as permitted under federal law and article VI of the U.S. Constitution. As state and local law enforcement officers trained pursuant to a 287 memorandum of understanding come into contact with gang or suspected gang members and there is reason to believe that the individual has entered or remained in the United States illegally, the use of these monies is contingent upon law enforcement agencies verifying the immigration status of these individuals and taking appropriate action that will not jeopardize an ongoing investigation or damage an informant relationship with a law enforcement agency. The department shall submit an expenditure plan to the joint legislative budget committee for review prior to expending any monies not identified in the department's previous expenditure plans. Within thirty days after the last day of each calendar quarter, the department shall provide a summary of quarterly and year-to-date expenditures and progress to the joint legislative budget committee.
The department of public safety shall report quarterly to the joint legislative budget committee on sworn personnel staffing levels. The report shall identify the number of filled and appropriated positions by job classification and, if applicable, the program to which the position is assigned.
Of the $2,672,900 for sworn officer salary adjustments, $2,000,000 from the general fund shall be used to provide salary adjustments for the officer I, officer II, and officer III classifications. The distribution of the $672,900 from the parity compensation fund shall be determined by the department. DPS shall provide a report indicating how the monies were allocated to the joint legislative budget committee by September 30, 2007. The report should include a salary comparison, by classification, based on both the five highest paying law enforcement agencies in the state and those that employ in excess of one hundred sworn positions.
Any monies remaining in the department of public safety joint account on June 30, 2008 shall revert to the funds from which they were appropriated. The reverted monies shall be returned in direct proportion to the amounts appropriated.
