This bill amends the powers and duties of the New Hampshire Vaccine Association by requiring that funds collected through assessments be disbursed by the end of each fiscal year, to the extent practicable, and not exceeding 90 days thereafter. Specifically, a new paragraph is added to RSA 126-Q:5, stating that assessments collected, including those deposited in the state vaccine purchase fund, must adhere to this timeline for disbursement.

Additionally, the bill modifies the language in RSA 126-Q:3, V(m) regarding the collection of assessments. It specifies that the assessments will be deposited annually with the state treasurer for the vaccine purchase fund, while also allowing for the return of any unexpended funds for childhood vaccines to the association upon request. The amendments include the insertion of the word "annually" and the phrase "for deposit in," while deleting references to the annual collection and crediting of funds. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
