AN ACT
To amend chapter 286, RSMo, by adding thereto one new section relating to the department of labor and industrial relations, with an emergency clause.
Section A. Chapter 286, RSMo, is amended by adding thereto one new section, to be known as section 286.300, to read as follows:
286.300. There is hereby created within the department of labor and industrial relations a "Department of Labor and Industrial Relations Administrative Fund" which shall be administered by the director of the department of labor and industrial relations. Moneys in the fund shall only be expended by the department of labor and industrial relations to administer the laws under the jurisdiction of the department and to provide goods and services which relate to the administration of these laws. The fund shall consist of revenues derived from privileges, conveniences, contracts, goods or services provided by the department of labor and industrial relations or any of the department's agencies to any governmental entity, public or private entities; moneys received as gifts, grants, bequests or contributions from private, federal, county or municipal entities; or other moneys which are transferred or paid to the department of labor and industrial relations or any of the department's agencies. The state treasurer shall be the custodian of the fund and shall provide disbursement from the fund at the request of the director of the department of labor and industrial relations for the reimbursement of goods and services necessary for the administration of the laws within the jurisdiction of the department of labor and industrial relations. Notwithstanding any other provisions of section 33.080, RSMo, to the contrary, moneys in the fund shall not lapse to general revenue or any other fund, and the funds shall remain in the department
of labor and industrial relations administrative fund. Interest accruing to the fund shall be part of the fund. The director of the department of labor and industrial relations shall include a reporting of all receipts and expenditures from the fund in the department's annual budget.
Section B. Because immediate action is necessary to allow the department of labor and industrial relations to implement the cost savings and efficiencies provided by this legislation for fiscal year 2000, this act is deemed necessary for the immediate preservation of the public health, welfare, peace and safety, and is hereby declared to be an emergency act within the meaning of the constitution, and this act shall be in full force and effect upon its passage and approval or July 1, 1999, whichever occurs later.
