New 14 day deposit rule for agencies and contractors

State agencies and certain contractors must deposit state money at least every 14 days. Daily deposits are required when cash to deposit is over $200 or when total collections are over $750. An agency can ask for a different schedule by sending its plan and internal controls to the Department of Administration. The Board of Investments also reviews the plan to protect state money and earnings. Deposits still occur every 14 days unless the agency shows hardship from peak processing. The law takes effect on passage and approval. The rule also covers contractors that collect at least $50,000 a year for the state.
