CONTRACTS BETWEEN THE DESIGNATED UNIT AND CERTIFIED MINORITY
BUSINESS ENTERPRISES; AND

(II)  THE PERCENTAGE THAT THOSE PROCUREMENT

WITHIN 90 DAYS AFTER THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR, EACH UNIT
THAT IS NOT REQUIRED TO REPORT UNDER SUBSECTION (A) OF THIS
SECTION SHALL SEND TO THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF MINORITY AFFAIRS:

(1)  TO THE EXTENT AVAILABLE, THE INFORMATION REQUIRED
UNDER SUBSECTION (A)(2) OF THIS SECTION; AND

(2)  A STATEMENT OF THE STEPS THAT THE UNIT HAS TAKEN
TO CARRY OUT THE REQUIREMENTS OF § 14-302(A) OF THIS SUBTITLE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former SF §
ll-148(c)(l) and (2)(i).

The introductory language of subsection (a)(2) of this
section is revised so that the phrase "for the
preceding fiscal year" applies to subsection (a)(2)(i)
and (ii). In former SF § ll-148(c)(1), it was unclear
whether the phrase applied only to the provisions
revised in subsection (a)(2)(ii) of this section or
both subsection (a)(2)(i) and (ii).

Defined terms: "Board" § 11-101

"Certified minority business enterprise" § 14-301

"Procurement" § 11-101

"Procurement contract" § 11-101 "Unit" § ll-101

14-306. DUTY OF GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF MINORITY AFFAIRS.
