PresentationDiscussion

0:00 → 10:25(10m 25s)

Treasury staff (Treasurer McCray and Treasury staffer Teresa) requested funding for a recurring data-match process and one-time backlog work; they said about $40,000,000 in unclaimed property arrives each year and described a $22,000,000 backlog. Treasury asked for $162,000 for an annual data match (costs, mailing checks and one additional position) and described staffing constraints (35 staff handling large transaction volumes). Treasurer McCray said the data-match helped direct $1,300,000 to tornado-affected Walthall County, and discussed possibilities of sharing data-match capacity across其他
