AI Summary
This bill amends the State Comptroller Act to expand the types of entities that can request deductions from state payments. Specifically, the bill adds public agencies or associations organized under intergovernmental agreements, including intergovernmental risk management associations and self-insurance pools, to the list of entities that can request deductions from state warrants or payments. The bill requires that any such request by a public agency or association must be accompanied by a written agreement between the parties or a court order. The Comptroller is authorized to deduct up to 25% of the net amount of wage, salary, or pension payments for these types of claims. The bill also specifies that the Comptroller must notify the payee and the state agency about the reason for any deduction and maintain a record of such statements. The changes will take effect on July 1, 2026, providing ample time for state agencies and local governments to prepare for the new provisions.
