36-5-108. Legislative intent Review Reallocation of staff and funding.

It is the legislative intent in enacting Acts 1985, ch. 477, that if the aid to families with dependent children (AFDC) caseload is reduced through the provisions of Acts 1985, ch. 477, that staff, support, and funding for AFDC shall be reallocated accordingly. Accordingly, the department of human services is directed to submit information to the fiscal review committee and to the finance, ways, and means committees of the senate and house of representatives on a quarterly basis on child support payments recovered under Acts 1985, ch. 477, reductions in AFDC payments and cases, and such other information as any of the committees may request. Further, it is provided that when preparing funding recommendations for inclusion in the budget document and general appropriations act for the 1986-1987, and subsequent fiscal years, the commissioners of human services and finance and administration shall reallocate staffing levels and funding for the AFDC program to reflect any caseload reductions in such program.
