Section 20.906 - Receipts and deposits of money(1) FREQUENCY OF DEPOSITS. Unless otherwise provided by law, all moneys collected or received by any state agency for or in behalf of the state or which are required by law to be turned into the state treasury shall be deposited in or transmitted to the state treasury at least once a week and also at other times as required by the governor or the secretary of administration and shall be accompanied by a statement in such form as the secretary of administration may prescribe showing the amount of such collection and from whom and for what purpose or on what account the same was received. All moneys paid into the treasury shall be credited to the general purpose revenues of the general fund unless otherwise specifically provided by law.(2) FORM OF RECEIPTS. The department of administration shall prescribe a form of official blank receipts to be issued by or for each state agency collecting or receiving any money for the state, or collecting any money required by law to be turned into the state treasury, and such state agency shall issue such official receipts to each person from whom money is received. All such official receipts shall be prenumbered consecutively. The secretary of administration may waive the issuance of official receipts in cases where the secretary prescribes other adequate collection control measures, but receipts shall be issued on demand.(3) IMPROPER USE OF RECEIPTS FORM. Any person who issues or delivers such official receipt or passes or utters the same, except as required by law, is guilty of a misdemeanor.(4) PENALTIES. If any state agency fails to make such deposits of money, or to make such reports as are required by this section, the department of administration, with the approval of the governor, shall withhold all moneys due such state agency until this section is complied with; and upon such failure to make such deposits of money, the officer or employee so failing shall be liable to the secretary of administration for an amount equal to the interest upon the moneys so withheld from deposit at the same rate as that received by the state upon moneys held in the state investment fund, for the period for which such deposit is withheld; and such interest shall be a charge against the officer or employee and shall be deducted from that person's compensation.(5) CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO RELEASE OF APPROPRIATIONS. All appropriations from state revenues for any state agency are made on the express conditions that such state agency pays all moneys received by it into the state treasury within one week of receipt or as often as otherwise directed by the governor or secretary of administration, and conforms with ss. 16.53(1) and 20.002 , regardless of the type of appropriations made to the state agency. Upon failure to comply with this subsection, the department of administration shall refuse to pay any moneys appropriated to the state agency from state revenues until the state agency complies with this subsection. Upon failure or refusal to so comply, after due notice received from the department of administration, any appropriations from state revenues to the state agency shall permanently revert to the fund from which appropriated.(6) DIRECT DEPOSITS. The governor or the secretary of administration may require state agencies making deposits under this section to make direct deposits to any depository designated by the secretary of administration or his or her designee, if such a requirement is advantageous or beneficial to this state.Amended by Acts 2017 ch, 59,s 501, eff. 9/23/2017.1975 c. 164; 1979 c. 34, 221; 1981 c. 20; 1983 a. 368; 1991 a. 316; 2003 a. 33.
