Summary

The bill amends the law governing Alabama’s Contract Review Permanent Legislative Oversight Committee so it can recommend that the governor refuse to sign a contract it has examined. All state departments must submit service contracts or letters of intent to the committee for review before the contract is executed. The change is intended to strengthen legislative oversight of state spending on private services.
