Bill > SB1170

This bill modifies the duties of the Director of the Office of Management and Enterprise Services (OMES) by changing the language from being "authorized to" to "shall" prescribe forms and electronic systems for processing state agency claims and payroll. The bill clarifies that state agencies can file claims against multiple budget line items within current allotments by indicating which accounts should be charged, and the Director must approve and charge these claims after proper audit. Additionally, the bill confirms the authorization of payroll systems for state employees, specifying that each payroll record must detail total earnings, withholding amounts, and net employee pay. The Director is also authorized to make lump sum payments of withholdings to the appropriate entities. An emergency clause is included, meaning the law will take effect immediately upon passage and approval, which is typically used when legislators determine urgent implementation is necessary for public safety, health, or peace.
