§5-10B-1. Legislative purpose.
The legislative purpose of this enactment is to enable
employees of the state, its agencies, counties, municipalities and
political subdivisions of such governmental bodies to participate
in voluntary deferred compensation plans authorized by the United
States Internal Revenue Code as interpreted by the Internal Revenue
Service, thereby permitting such employees to obtain the advantages
inherent in such plans relative to the income tax treatment of the
contributions and disbursements made pursuant to such voluntary
income deferment plans. It is further the purpose of this
enactment to authorize the establishment of separate plans for the
state and its agencies and for counties, municipalities and
political subdivisions within the state and to authorize county,
municipal and political subdivision employees to participate in the
state deferred compensation plan if their employer does not have a
plan.
