For purposes of this section, "state agency" has the same meaning as provided in section 9-612 and "interpreting" has the same meaning as provided in section 17a-838. Any state agency that is unable to fulfill a request for interpreting services with its own interpreting staff shall first request such services from the Department of Aging and Disability Services and may seek such services elsewhere if (1) the department is unable to fulfill the request in two business days, or (2) the agency shows good cause that it needs such services immediately. The provisions of this section shall not (A) apply to the Department of Aging and Disability Services if the department needs interpreting services related to an internal matter and the use of department interpreters may raise confidentiality concerns, or (B) affect any preexisting contract for interpreting services. Interpreting services provided by a state agency shall be in accordance with the provisions of section 17a-838.
