HB 1025 New Hampshire House · 2026 Regular Session

relative to the designation of the chief financial officer as a civilian employee within the department of military affairs and veterans services.

HB 1025 updates the statutory designation of the chief financial officer (CFO) responsible for identifying eligible agency income for deposit into the New Hampshire Armories Fund. It changes the reference from "CFO of the New Hampshire National Guard" to "CFO of the Department of Military Affairs and Veterans Services," clarifying which department manages this fund. This fund supplements general funds for operating military facilities (excluding federal program income), with the CFO identifying eligible income for deposit. The bill was requested by the Department of Military Affairs and Veterans Services and takes effect July 1, 2026.
