          SB 72 (Ducheny)

           SUMMARY:   Makes technical and clarifying changes to provisions  
          approved as part of the July 2009-10 Budget Act.  Specifically,  
           this bill  :

          1)Clarifies that the payday deferral enacted through AB 12 X4  
            (Chapter 12, Statutes or 2009-10 Fourth Extraordinary Session)  
            applies to only June 30th paychecks.  Current law directs the  
            State Controller to issue date all June 30th paychecks to July  
            1, thus allocating those costs into the following fiscal year.  


          2)Makes technical clarifying amendments to the provision  
            authorizing the Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) to  
            use reserves generated by one or more self-funded benefit  
            plans to reduce premiums charged.
