           Original Committee Reference:    A. & A.R.  

           SUMMARY  :   Prohibits a state agency from entering into a  
          personal services contract that guarantees payments for services  
          not provided.

           The Senate amendments : 

          1)Strike out all bill language that would have been added to the  
            Public Contract Code and moves this section with nearly  
            identical language to the Government Code.

          2)Change the term "a contract for services" to "a personal  
            services contract."

           EXISTING LAW  : 

          1)Specifies the various responsibilities of the Department of  
            General Services and other state agencies in overseeing and  
            implementing state contracting procedures and policies.

          2)Prohibits, under the California Constitution, gifts of public  
            funds.
           
           FISCAL EFFECT  :  According to the Senate Appropriations  
          Committee, pursuant to Senate Rule 28.8, negligible state costs.
