Bill > HB1747

This bill appropriates $209,142.00 from the state treasury to the Mississippi State Board of Nursing Home Administrators for the fiscal year 2026, which runs from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026. The appropriation will support two permanent positions, with no time-limited positions authorized. The bill includes several key provisions that govern how the funds can be used, including strict guidelines for managing personnel expenses, such as ensuring that personal service funds do not exceed the appropriated level without legislative approval and maintaining detailed accounting records. The legislation also stipulates that all revenue generated by the board should be deposited into a special fund within the State Treasury, with any interest earned remaining in that fund. Additionally, the bill includes a preference clause for the Mississippi Industries for the Blind when the board makes competitive purchases, and it emphasizes that the board must comply with state financial regulations, ensuring that no obligations or indebtedness are incurred beyond the appropriated amount. The bill will take effect on July 1, 2025, providing clear financial guidance and constraints for the Mississippi State Board of Nursing Home Administrators for the upcoming fiscal year.
