Senate Bill 73 updates South Dakota's financial record-keeping and transparency rules by requiring state agencies to file consulting contracts with the state auditor within five days and clarifying what qualifies as a "consulting contract." The bill also refines how long agencies must keep financial records and strengthens the state's searchable website for posting public records and financial information.
