Sec. OO-1. Calculation and transfer; savings from pursuing federal and commercial reimbursement. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the State Budget Officer shall calculate the amount of savings in section 2 that applies against each General Fund account for all departments and agencies from savings realized as a result of increased efforts in pursuing federal and commercial reimbursement for state-funded programs, improved eligibility verification procedures and other data integration improvements to state-funded services. The State Budget Officer shall consult with the State Controller to determine if the savings should be accounted for in the Other Special Revenue allocation in section 2 or if the savings are more appropriately accounted for as an adjustment to General Fund appropriations. If it is determined the savings should be reflected as General Fund adjustments, the State Budget Officer shall transfer the calculated amounts by financial order upon the approval of the Governor. These transfers are considered adjustments to appropriations in fiscal year 2004-05. The State Budget Officer shall provide the joint standing committee of the Legislature having jurisdiction over appropriations and financial affairs a report of the transferred amounts and the Other Special Revenue funds received as a result of these efforts no later than January 15, 2005.
