A BILL

TO AMEND TITLE 43, CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, BY ADDING SECTION 43-1-55 SO AS TO PROVIDE THAT THE STATE COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SERVICES IS EMPOWERED AND DIRECTED TO REDISTRIBUTE ANNUALLY EMPLOYEES ADMINISTERING MANDATED SERVICES AMONG THE COUNTIES ACCORDING TO THE RESPECTIVE COUNTY'S POPULATION AND CASE LOAD.

Amend Title To Conform

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

SECTION 1. Title 43 of the 1976 Code is amended by adding:

"Section 43-1-55. (A) As used in this section, mandated services are child protective services, adult protective services, foster care services, licensing of substitute care and day care facilities, information and referral, interstate compact, and case management for social services block grant services.

(B) The State Commissioner is empowered to redistribute annually among the counties of the State full-time positions administering mandated human services, so as to achieve in each county, to the extent practicable, a number of positions proportionate to the case load of the county. These full-time positions are to be reallocated as vacancies or as employees in these positions agree to transfer. Before a redistribution occurs, the proposed change must be reported by the commissioner to the county legislative delegation of that county with a written justification therefor."

SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
