Recent Transcript Excerpts
No, I agree, and I'm not being adverse. I'm just saying I think I agree that it's a very important thing. I'm just saying if we're going to fund it, whether it's $4 million, $8 million, $12
agreement by such and such a date or you don't receive such and such so but I'm a little more aggressive and you know pointing at
the agencies maybe than some who have more influence in the governor's office and the challenge to doing something like that would be are we going to who
understand so i just don't want to lead you into saying one way or the other the reason i keep going back to the data sharing agreements seems like it would not be smart for the legislature to fund this and not know the data sharing agreements were already entered into or timely would be entered into it would just seem like bad business and so i differ a little bit in that i think we can tell agencies in their budgets you will have a data sharing
understand the hedge. I'm not giving you a hard time about it, but you're saying that you need an appropriation for four million dollars a year reoccurring to put together what we showed earlier the the hub is that right to put that together
establishing supporting state data-wide or estimated 3.9 million a year for years one through five and then you go down to total annual costs for other statewide data warehouse programs studied range from 8 million to 9 million per year so I think kind of what I was wondering is that is it the 4 million plus 8 or 9 million a year I guess in something previous we were given I think it It was $8
but in this report doesn't say that's where if you it's got dollars in here somewhere right it I thought I highlighted
and I may be I was reading too quick the annual cost for
report so if you look at page 29 right so that the annual
i may have just gotten confused but the the which is not your fault that
in government is that just gets it just gets drug out so that i think there has to be a deadline at some point that we get these agreements done. And
work through right now all right i still
i'm not sure that i quite i understand if we mandate it maybe it doesn't happen as quick as we want but i think patience is kind of an overrated virtue in government so uh in life really that's why you're elected and not me we should be you know it seems like if we're going to do this we are everyone should be on board i know there are legal issues to work through and all that but that some at some point maybe in the next legislative session when i'm gone there should be a mandate that it will be done by a certain timeline or my experience
do it. Here's the generalized agreement. Why is there all this negotiation and difficulty amongst the state
We can tell state agencies what to do, or if we wanted to. Why don't we just cut to the chase at some point when we're ready and say, look, you will share data. You have to
up while we've got him here and I don't know if you're about to leave But this is one thing that I haven't understood, and I ask, I think, the people from Indiana about this, maybe North Carolina or whatever, is that we've had a lot of talk about we've had issues with data sharing agreements and getting the agencies on board. I think they're coming along. Of course, my reaction has been, well, that's one thing the legislature can do.
million sometimes it reads like you only need 8 million so am I jumping ahead? Senator I
4 million and then 8 million meaning 12
Does that answer your question? I think it does, and I agree with my very limited understanding of this. I think from a security standpoint, my understanding is that's the best way to go, right? and then you do envision I guess a state agency which is what I have thought maybe everybody's way ahead of me on that would be the Rosetta Stone in the middle so then I may be jumping ahead and reading the next report is it 8 million or sometimes to me it reads like you need
be very basic is who's in the middle there is that and that may be representative Meeks what you just asked who is that a state agency is that DIS and is that where all the data is or is there an RFP so I mean how does that how do we I'm having a hard time thinking through how this committee helps us get to this
