§ 7-9-14. Electronic funds transfer for withdrawal, transfer, or deposit of funds for investment purposes.

The State Treasurer is authorized to receive, disburse or transfer public funds under his jurisdiction by means of wire, direct deposit or electronic funds transfer. The State Fiscal Officer is authorized to receive, disburse or transfer public funds between State Treasury accounts without the issuance of warrant. The State Treasurer and State Fiscal Officer shall promulgate the rules, regulations and procedures to substitute an electronic funds transfer or the receipt, disbursement or transfer of public funds between State Treasury accounts for a receipt warrant, requisition and use of a warrant in order to facilitate the collection, transfer, investment and disbursement of public funds. In the instance of electronic transfer of funds, the Treasurer shall provide the State Fiscal Officer the same information as would be required for a requisition and issuance of a warrant. In the instance of receipt, disbursement and transfer between State Treasury accounts, the State Fiscal Officer shall maintain the same information as would be required if an application for a receipt warrant, a requisition for issuance for warrant and a warrant had been issued. A copy of the record of any electronic funds transfer shall be transmitted by state depositories to the Treasurer who shall file duplicates with the State Fiscal Officer.
