Bill Summary
Under existing law, the Contract Review Permanent Legislative Oversight Committee reviews contracts of state departments for personal or professional services with private entities or individuals to be paid out of appropriated funds
Contracts let in specified emergency situations may be let for 60 days without committee review, but a succeeding contract is subject to review by the committee. Personal and professional service contracts let by competitive bid are excluded from review
