Section 22.6 - Advance payments for renewal contracts

(a) Where a State agency administering a contract has advised a not-for-profit organization of the State agency's intention to renew the contract, the State agency may authorize an advance payment to the not-for profit organization pursuant to this section pending execution of the renewal contract, if such contract is not fully executed by the commencement date of the renewal contract.

(b) Existing or renewal contracts that do not contain an optional financing or fifth quarter financing provision shall be eligible for an advance payment providing such organization receives a written directive from a State agency.

(c) An advance payment under this section shall not exceed one quarter of the amount paid or to be paid to the not-for-profit organization pursuant to the existing contract.

(d) Any advance payment shall offset the amount of money due to the organization for services provided during the period for which payment was made.

(e) Any State agency that wishes to provide an advance payment pursuant to this section shall submit to the comptroller a written directive, a voucher and such other documents as may be required by the comptroller. The comptroller shall review such written directive and either approve or disapprove such written directive. Such written directive shall include language indicating that if the agency subsequently determines pursuant to section 179-w of the State Finance Law that substantive and significant differences exist between the State agency and the not-for-profit organization in the negotiation of the contract or that the not-for-profit organization is not negotiating the renewal contract in good faith, the written directive shall be deemed suspended and the not-for-profit organization shall not be eligible for subsequent advance payments thereunder.
