HB 3466 Oklahoma House · 2026 Regular Session

Corporation Commission; removing Corporation Commission petty cash fund; effective date.

HB 3466 removes a specific petty cash fund for the Corporation Commission's legal division, which previously allowed up to $500 for court costs and legal expenses. The bill directly affects the Corporation Commission by eliminating this fund, while leaving all other agency petty cash funds (like those for hospitals, juvenile centers, or the Health Department) unchanged. The key provision deletes Section 1.C from the existing law, which created and limited the Commission's petty cash fund. The change takes effect November 1, 2026. This is a procedural adjustment with no new policy or funding changes beyond removing this single fund.
