Bill > SB760

This bill amends the Oklahoma Information Services Act by removing outdated language related to the appointment timeline of the Chief Information Officer (CIO), who is responsible for overseeing the state's information technology and telecommunications systems. Specifically, it deletes the requirement that the first CIO be appointed by January 1, 2010, making the position's establishment and appointment process more flexible. The bill also clarifies that the CIO's authority to employ personnel and direct their work, as well as the Information Services Division's responsibilities, begin upon the CIO's appointment, rather than being tied to the first CIO's appointment date.
