If this bill were to become law, it would amend the current statutes regarding the Automation Projects Fund by updating the provisions related to the lapsing of appropriations. Specifically, it would insert language that exempts the $7,000,000 appropriation from the Arizona Corporation Commission (ACC) Subaccount in the Automation Projects Fund for the Business One Stop from lapsing until July 1, 2026. This change would ensure that the funds remain available for use beyond the current expiration date of June 30, 2025, as stipulated in existing law.

Additionally, the bill would make conforming changes to the language of the statute, including the correction of grammatical elements such as changing "is" to "are" and specifying the subsections from which the appropriations are drawn. The overall effect of these updates would be to provide clarity and extend the availability of funds for the ACC's online records and filing system project, thereby supporting the Business One Stop initiative.
