PROPOSED TRANSFER OF FUNDS

 

Department:  Department of Human Rights & Ethics

 

Request:  Personnel Wages to Professional Services 

 

Reason:  Funding for 2025 Data Fellow, who will begin working with the Department in October 2024.

 

From Account(s): 11000.1002.14940.501010, Salaries/Wages of Regular Employees, $75,000.00 

 

To Account(s): 11000.1002.14940.520830, Professional Services, $75,000.00 

 

Total Amount of Transfer:  $75,000.00

 

On what date did it become apparent that the receiving account would require an infusion of funds in order to meet current obligations?  What was the balance in the account on that date, and what was the balance 30 days prior to that date?

 

August 1, 2024. As of August 2, 2024, the balance of the account was $743,024.84 and 30 days prior to that date the balance was $801,620.02. 

 

How was the account used for the source of transferred funds identified?  List any other accounts that were also considered (but not used) as the source of the transferred funds.

 

Staffing changes resulted in a surplus in the source account. 

 

Identify any projects, purchases, programs, contracts, or other obligations that will be deferred, delayed, or canceled as a result of the reduction in available spending authority that will result in the account that funds are transferred from.

 

Onboarding of 2025 Data Fellow will be significantly delayed if the funds are not transferred, which will further delay several Human Rights and Ethics data-related priorities. 

 

If the answer to the above question is “none” then please explain why this account was originally budgeted in a manner that caused an unobligated surplus to develop at this point in the fiscal year.
