17558
. (a) The commission shall submit the adopted parameters and
guidelines or a reasonable reimbursement methodology approved
pursuant to Section 17557.2 to the Controller. As used in this
chapter, a "reasonable reimbursement methodology" approved pursuant
to Section 17557.2 includes all amendments to the reasonable
reimbursement methodology. When the Legislature declares a
legislatively determined mandate in accordance with Section 17573 in
which claiming instructions are necessary, the Department of Finance
shall notify the Controller.
(b) Not later than 90 days after receiving the adopted parameters
and guidelines, a reasonable reimbursement methodology from the
commission, or notification from the Department of Finance, the
Controller shall issue claiming instructions for each mandate that
requires state reimbursement, to assist local agencies and school
districts in claiming costs to be reimbursed. In preparing claiming
instructions, the Controller shall request assistance from the
Department of Finance and may request the assistance of other state
agencies. The claiming instructions shall be derived from the test
claim decision and the adopted parameters and guidelines, reasonable
reimbursement methodology, or statute declaring a legislatively
determined mandate.
(c) The Controller shall, within 90 days after receiving amended
parameters and guidelines, an amended reasonable reimbursement
methodology from the commission or other information necessitating a
revision of the claiming instructions, prepare and issue revised
claiming instructions for mandates that require state reimbursement
that have been established by commission action pursuant to Section
17557, Section 17557.2, or after any decision or order of the
commission pursuant to Section 17559, or after any action by the
Legislature pursuant to Section 17573. In preparing revised claiming
instructions, the Controller may request the assistance of other
state agencies.
