S.F. 630   (DOM) to use moneys in the fund for technology projects 1   using factors set forth in the bill. The bill requires 2   DOM to provide a prioritized list of proposed projects to 3   the governor, who must use the list to develop a budgetary 4   recommendation to the general assembly, and to report completed 5   and ongoing projects to the general assembly annually. The 6   bill strikes the standing appropriation to the technology 7   reinvestment fund and provides that any moneys in the fund 8   shall remain available for three years after the appropriation 9   is made. 10   The bill increases the frequency at which a person 11   performing work for DOM or an individual on the information 12   technology staff of a supported entity may be subject to a 13   national criminal history check through the federal bureau of 14   investigation from at least once every 10 years to every 5 15   years. 16   The bill prohibits the inclusion of certain provisions in 17   information technology contracts and declares those provisions 18   void if present in such contracts. The bill also provides that 19   such contracts are deemed to include provisions requiring the 20   contract to be governed by Iowa law and litigation related to 21   the contract to be brought and maintained in a state or federal 22   court sitting in Iowa.

If DOM lacks sufficient moneys to perform the 11   authorized tasks of the Iowa statistical analysis center, the 12   bill allows DOM to determine which, if any, to implement. 13   The bill states that DOM is not the lawful custodian under 14   Code chapter 22 (open records) for records DOM maintains in 15   DOMs information technology capacity for other state entities 16   as an automated data processing unit of government or when 17   held by DOM solely for storage for another department or 18   establishment.

This 25   provision takes effect upon enactment and applies retroactively 26   to January 1, 2020. 27   -15-   LSB 1362SZ (2) 91   sc/ns 15/ 15
