	(2)	4260019-Child Support Automation ........................	24,832,000
	Provisions:
	1.	Notwithstanding any other law, a loan not to exceed $100,000,000 shall be made available from the General Fund, from funds not otherwise appropriated, to cover the federal share of costs of the program when federal funds have not been received by the state prior to the usual time for transmitting that federal share to the counties of the state or to cover the federal share of child support collections for which federal funds have been reduced prior to the collections being received from the counties. This loan from the General Fund shall be repaid when the federal share of costs for the program becomes available or when the collections are received from the counties.
	2.	The Department of Finance may authorize the establishment of positions and transfer of amounts from this item to Item 5175-001-0001 in order to allow the state to perform the functions or oversee the functions of the local child support agency of any county that fails to perform that function or is out of compliance with state performance standards.
	3.	The department may transfer up to $500,000 total annually in unspent funds combined from Items 5175-001-0001, 5175-002-0001, and 5175-101-0001 to the Child Support Payment Trust Fund to offset unrecoverable overpayments pursuant to Section 17311 of the Family Code.
	4.	The funding level appropriated in this item for purposes related to local child support agency administration is intended to align budgeted resources, on a temporary basis, with recent trends in annual expenditures. This program in recent years has had savings that generally materialize at the end of the fiscal year due to challenges in the labor market, staff attrition, and the timeline necessary for local agencies to process recruitments. Rather than wait until the savings revert to the General Fund, and due to the State’s current fiscal situation, the state budget captures these dollars up front. The State does not intend for the identification of these savings at the outset of the fiscal year, rather than at the end, to have an adverse impact on service delivery at the local level or result in staffing reductions or layoffs.

	Provisions:
	1.	Provisions 1 and 4 of Item 5180-101-0001 also apply to this item.
	2.	Notwithstanding Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 18000) of Part 6 of Division 9 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, a loan not to exceed $1,000,000,000 shall be made available from the General Fund from funds not otherwise appropriated, to cover the federal share or reimbursable share, or both, of costs of a program or programs when the federal funds or reimbursements (from the Health Care Deposit Fund or counties) have not been received by this state prior to the usual time for transmitting payments for the federal or reimbursable share of costs for this state. That loan from the General Fund shall be repaid when the federal share of costs for the program or programs becomes available, or in the case of reimbursements, subject to Section 16351 of the Government Code. County reimbursements also shall be subject to Section 16314 of the Government Code, which specifies the rate of interest. The State Department of Social Services may offset a county’s share of cost of the In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) program against local assistance payments made to the county if the county fails to reimburse its share of cost of the IHSS program to the state.
	3.

The State does not intend for the identification of these savings at the outset of the fiscal year, rather than at the end, to have an adverse impact on service delivery at the local level.
