Subpart 3 - Plan for Public School Employees
§ 20-2-920. Withholding or Deducting Employees’ Contributions; State Contributions; Enrollment of Employees of School System Not Participating in the Plan

History. Ga. L. 1975, p. 1194, § 10; Ga. L. 1980, p. 1538, § 3; Ga. L. 1982, p. 896, § 2; Ga. L. 1983, p. 3, § 16; Ga. L. 1984, p. 1692, § 1; Ga. L. 1985, p. 149, § 20; Ga. L. 2005, p. 623, § 5/SB 284; Ga. L. 2015, p. 1376, § 37/HB 502.
The 2015 amendment, effective July 1, 2015, in subsection (b), substituted “State Board of Education to, with reasonable promptness, withhold from the employer which has failed to comply sufficient state funds as calculated by the commissioner to fully satisfy the outstanding obligation of the local employer to the health insurance fund” for “State Board of Education to withhold from the employer which has failed to comply all appropriations allotted to such employer until such employer has fully complied with the provisions of this Code section by making remittance of the sums required” at the end of the second sentence and added the last sentence.
Editor’s notes.
Ga. L. 1982, p. 896, § 2, effective July 1, 1982, amended Ga. L. 1975, p. 1194, § 10, as amended, the basis for this Code section, by substituting “employee” for “employer” in the last sentence of that section of the 1975 Act. However, the 1982 Act did not specifically amend this Code section. Furthermore, since Ga. L. 1975, p. 1194, § 10 stood repealed on November 1, 1982 (see Code Section 1-1-10(a)(2)), the 1982 amendment was of no effect after that date. The provisions of Ga. L. 1982, p. 896, § 1 were substantially reenacted by Ga. L. 1983, p. 3, § 16, and codified as an amendment to this Code section.
