Such report shall (i) describe the 2 contracts that have not been submitted, (ii) detail the reasons the 3 contract has not been submitted, (iii) detail the steps the agency is 4 taking to submit and fully execute the contract, and (iv) provide an 5 estimate of when it shall submit and fully execute the contract. The 6 agency shall also make such reports publicly accessible on its website. 7 (b) Within six months of becoming a noncompliant state agency, such 8 agency shall prepare and transmit to the office of the state comp- 9 troller, the temporary president of the senate, and the speaker of the 10 assembly, a report describing its efforts to become compliant with the 11 requirements of section one hundred seventy-nine-t of this article. Such 12 report shall describe in detail efforts to revise internal policies and 13 procedures, identify bottlenecks and other barriers to efficient 14 contracting, retrain staff and management, incorporate improved manage- 15 ment practices, reform procurement processes, and any other factor which 16 will enable the agency to meet the requirements of section one hundred 17 seventy-nine-t of this article as related to not-for-profit organiza- 18 tions. The agency shall also prepare and deliver updated reports every 19 six months after the delivery of the first report describing the 20 progress it has made.

All written directives shall state that payment for the 29 services provided is subject to the availability of appropriations[ , 30 execution of either the contract or renewal contract, and approval of 31 the contract or renewal contract by the comptroller and the attorney 32 general ] . All written directives shall also include the state's payment 33 schedule, which will remain in effect until a contract is approved. Any 34 late payments from the state based on the schedule will be subject to 35 interest . 36 § 5. This act shall take effect immediately.
