Reported without amendment
With the recommendation that the substitute (H-1) be adopted and that the bill then pass.
Substitute offered
To replace the previous version of the bill with one that revises details, and also increases the savings required to trigger contracting out payroll service from 2 percent to 5 percent. It also requires that the quality of any potential alternative service be considered if the function is contracted out, and that the vendor be local, other things being equal.
The substitute passed by voice vote
