5 | contracts or grants shall submit a written statement to the | ||||||
6 | Governor and to the Comptroller attesting to the reasons for | ||||||

20 | filed with the Comptroller. Contractors shall not be paid for | ||||||
21 | any supplies that were received or services that were rendered | ||||||
22 | before the contract was reduced to writing and signed by all | ||||||
23 | necessary parties. A chief procurement officer may request an | ||||||
