A bill for an act relating to matters under the purview of the department of management, and including effective date and applicability provisions.

Summary

The bill lets the Department of Management move small amounts of money between state agencies when one lacks funds and another has excess, but only after notifying legislative appropriations committees and allowing the Legislative Council to block the transfer. It also creates a permanent $17.5 million fund each year to pay for state information‑technology hardware, software and related projects, with the department ranking projects before sending a list to the governor. These changes aim to improve fiscal flexibility and give the state a steady source for technology upgrades.
