Date changed for debt report.

Related bill: SF1737

AI Generated Summary

This Minnesota bill proposes an amendment to Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 16D.09, subdivision 1, regarding the reporting of uncollectible state debts. The key change is to shift the deadline for the annual summary report of uncollectible debts from October 31 to November 30 each year.

Uncollectible debts are those that meet criteria such as exhausting all reasonable collection efforts, having a collection cost that exceeds recoverable amounts, being legally unsubstantiated, or being subject to expired statutes of limitations. Agencies must report such debts quarterly to the Commissioner of Management and Budget. Additionally, if an uncollectible debt equals or exceeds $100,000, the agency must notify the chairs and ranking minority members of the relevant legislative committees.

This bill does not eliminate the underlying debt obligation but adjusts the reporting schedule for transparency and oversight purposes.
