Book excerpt: Section 10 of L. 1982, Ch. 144 requires the secretary of social and rehabilitation services to establish a state alcohol and drug safety action program (ADSAP). The state ADSAP is funded through an assessment of $85 upon each person who is convicted of, pleads n̲o̲l̲o̲ c̲o̲n̲t̲e̲n̲d̲e̲r̲e̲ to, or participates in a diversion program as a result of, a violation of K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567. Moneys in the fund may be expended for a variety of services specified by statute, including pre-sentence evaluations, and supervision and monitoring subsequent to sentencing, of persons convicted of or pleading n̲o̲l̲o̲ c̲o̲n̲t̲e̲n̲d̲e̲r̲e̲ to a violation. As a person participating in a diversion program does not fall into either of the above categories, the secretary is without authority to expend moneys from the fund on evaluations for such individuals who have not actually been convicted or pled n̲o̲l̲o̲ c̲o̲n̲t̲e̲n̲d̲e̲r̲e̲. However, assessment funds can be used to pay, in full or in part, the cost of any alcohol treatment and/or education program required by the diversion agreement.
