Mississippi HB1602 requires state agencies to contract with a third party to prepare a budget request if they fail to file their own within 30 days.
Mississippi HB1602 amends the state budget process by requiring state agencies to contract with a third party to prepare a budget request if they fail to file their own within 30 days of the deadline. The budget request prepared by the third party must be three percent lower than the agency's current budget from state general funds. The agency is responsible for paying the contractor, and if they fail to do so within 45 days, they cannot expend their current fiscal year appropriation.
