Bill > SB550

This bill modifies the Information Services Act to expand the definition of "state agencies" to include entities within the judicial branch of state government, in addition to the executive branch, for the purposes of information technology and telecommunications management, though higher education institutions and OneNet are generally excluded from these provisions except for specific assessments. The bill also establishes an effective date of July 1, 2015, and declares an emergency, meaning it will take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
