Summary

The law sets new rules for how Connecticut agencies manage “legislatively directed funds,” which are appropriations earmarked for a specific recipient. Agencies must distribute these funds on a reimbursement basis, get approval before passing money to sub‑recipients, and file annual reports that the secretary will post online. The aim is to make the use of these targeted funds more transparent and accountable.
