The bill amends South Dakota's budget submission timeline by changing the deadlines for budget requests from October fifteenth to September first. The head of each budget unit is now required to submit the necessary explanatory data for their financial budget requests to the Bureau of Finance and Management by September first each year. Additionally, if the budget unit has a board or commission, their approval of the budget requests is mandated prior to submission.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that the Bureau of Finance and Management must transmit the budget request data, along with the explanatory information, to the Legislative Research Council by October first. This revision aims to streamline the budget process and ensure that all necessary approvals and submissions occur in a timely manner.
