Commencing January 1, 2013, the Administrative Office of the Courts shall collect from trial courts information regarding the implementation of the 2011 Realignment Legislation. That information shall include statistics for each county regarding the dispositions of felonies at sentencing and petitions to revoke probation, postrelease community supervision, mandatory supervision, and, commencing July 1, 2013, parole. The data shall be provided not less frequently than twice a year by the trial courts to the Administrative Office of the Courts. Funds provided to the trial courts for the implementation of criminal justice realignment may be used for the purpose of collecting the information and providing it to the Administrative Office of the Courts. The Administrative Office of the Courts shall make this data available to the Department of Finance, the Board of State and Community Corrections, and the Joint Legislative Budget Committee on or before September 1, 2013, and annually thereafter. It is the intent of the Legislature that the Administrative Office of the Courts promote collaboration and the reduction of duplication of data collection and reporting efforts where possible.
