AN ACT RELATING TO PUBLIC FINANCE -- STATE FUNDS
This bill adds the Workers' Compensation Administration Fund to a list of state funds exempt from having 10% of their cash receipts transferred to the general fund as indirect cost recoveries. It directly affects the workers' compensation program by ensuring its dedicated funds remain separate from general revenue. The key provision modifies Section 35-4-27 to exclude this specific fund from the standard 10% indirect cost recovery rule. This is a procedural change to fund management, not a new policy.
