Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection (DESPP)
In 2013, Governor Malloy signed sweeping gun control reforms. Those changes, as well as discussion on national reforms, have led to an increased demand for gun permits and thus an increased workload for DESPP in processing background checks, pistol permits, long-gun certificates and ammunition certificates. In order to keep up with the rising costs associated with these workload increases, the Governor is proposing increasing the state portion of the pistol permit fee to $300, making the initial permit $370, renewable every 5 years at $300. By statute, local authorities retain $70 of the initial pistol permit fee. The current fee for a pistol permit is $140 for the initial permit and $70 for a renewal every 5 years. This fee change is projected to increase revenues for the state by $9 million each year.

In addition to updating pistol permit fees, the Governor is proposing that the various background check fees be increased from $50 to $75. As federal requirements increasingly call for criminal background checks for certain employees such as nursing home workers and education professionals, DESPP has seen a spike in requests for background checks with additional growth anticipated in the biennium. Again, with the cost of conducting background checks rising due to increased demand, the fee increase is necessary to support costs of the entire process. This $25 fee increase is projected to generate an additional $2.6 million in revenue annually.
