A BILL recognizing and declaring certain claims against agencies of the state to be moral obligations of the state; and directing the Auditor to issue warrants for the payment thereof.

Be it enacted by the Legislature of West Virginia:


CLAIMS AGAINST THE STATE.

§1. Finding and declaring certain claims against the Department of Health and Human Resources and Department of Tax and Revenue to be moral obligations of the state and directing payments thereof.


The Legislature has heretofore made findings of fact that the state has received the benefit of the commodities received and/or services rendered by certain claimants herein and has considered these claims against the state, and agency thereof, which have arisen due to over-expenditures of the departmental appropriations by officers of the state spending units, the claims having been previously considered by the Legislative Claims Commission which also found that the state has received the benefit of the commodities received and/or services rendered by the claimants, but were denied by the Legislative Claims Commission on the purely statutory grounds that to allow the claims would be condoning illegal acts contrary to the laws of the state. The Legislature, pursuant to its findings of fact and also by the adoption of the findings of fact by the Legislative Claims Commission as its own, while not condoning such illegal acts, hereby declares it to be the moral obligation of the state to pay these claims in the amounts specified below and directs the Auditor to issue warrants upon receipt of properly executed requisitions supported by itemized invoices, statements, or other satisfactory documents as required by §12-3-10 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, for the payments thereof out of any fund appropriated and available for the purpose.

(a)        Claim against the Department of Health and Human Resources:

(TO BE PAID FROM GENERAL REVENUE FUND)

(1)             Affordable Funeral and Cremation Center/Bolyard Funeral Home.................................................................................................. $1,250.00

(2)             Evans-Calfee Funeral Service................................................. $1,200.00

(b)             Claims against the Department of Tax and Revenue:

(TO BE PAID FROM GENERAL REVENUE FUND)

(1)         Samco Financial Services Corporation...................................... $720.00

(2)             Samco Financial Services Corporation ..................................... $385.00

 

NOTE: The purpose of this bill is to provide payment to certain vendors who provided commodities and/or services to the state, but who were not paid because the agency reached its budget limit.

                                              Total from DHHR            $2,450.00

                              Total from Tax and Revenue            $1,105.00

               Total amount from General Revenue:              $3,555.00
