Reference is to Printer's Date 5/10/17-S.

Amend the bill, as and if amended, by adding an appropriately numbered SECTION to read:

/      SECTION      ___.      A.      Chapter 1, Title 11 of the 1976 Code is amended by adding:

     "Section 11-1-130.      (A)      If the state, a municipality, county, or other political subdivision appropriates public funds or makes grant of public funds by name to an entity operating in this State as a domestic or foreign nonprofit corporation, then the nonprofit corporation must submit to the appropriating or granting jurisdiction an expenditure report. Before providing any monies to the nonprofit corporation, the appropriating or granting jurisdiction must obtain from the nonprofit corporation a written agreement to submit the expenditure reports required by this section. The expenditure report must be submitted annually and until all monies received from the appropriation or grant have been expended. A final expenditure report is due to the appropriating or granting jurisdiction not later than one hundred twenty days after all monies received from the appropriation or grant have been expended.
     (B)(1)      The expenditure reports required by this section are in addition to any documentation that may be required by the state agency, municipality, county, or other political subdivision to disburse public funds.
           (2)      The expenditure report required by the section must be limited to and contain:
           (a)      the name and address of the reporting nonprofit corporation, including the nonprofit corporation's web address;
           (b)      a description of the purpose of the appropriation or grant;
           (c)      the total dollar amount of the appropriation or grant;
           (d)      the total dollar amount of the appropriation or grant expended as of the date of the expenditure report;
           (e)      the dollar amount expended as of the date of the expenditure report by budget category, using the budget categories as used in the state's annual general appropriations bill or by budget categories substantially similar to the budget categories used in the state's annual general appropriations bill.
     (C)      The expenditure reports required by this section must be made available to the public by the appropriating or granting jurisdiction. The nonprofit corporation shall direct requests for a copy of the expenditure report to the appropriating or granting jurisdiction. A nonprofit corporation that receives appropriated public funds or a grant of public funds for which the nonprofit corporation is required to submit an expenditure report pursuant to this section is exempt from the provisions of Chapter 4, Title 30, unless the nonprofit corporation is subject to the provisions of Chapter 4, Title 30, for reasons other than the receipt of appropriated public funds or a grant of public funds for which the nonprofit corporation is required to file an expenditure report.
     (D)      The submission of expenditure reports, as required in subsection (A) of this section, is not required for public funds received as payment from a state agency, municipality, county, or other political subdivision in return for supplying specific goods or services as part of an arms-length transaction. For purposes of this subsection, 'goods or services' includes, but not limited to, membership fees, dues, and subscriptions."

B.      This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor and applies to any appropriations and grants of public funds received thereafter and within three calendar years thereof.      /
