 Introduced by M. of A. SLATER, DURSO -- read once and referred to the
 Committee on Labor

 AN ACT to amend the labor law and the general municipal law, in relation
 to requiring certain entities to disclose if they have been debarred
 from being awarded public contracts

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Paragraph b of subdivision 3 of section 220-b of the labor
 2 law is amended by adding a new subparagraph 4 to read as follows:
 3 (4) (i) When any contractor, subcontractor, or person is debarred by
 4 the federal or any state or territorial government, for having disre-
 5 garded obligations to employees under the Davis-Bacon act pursuant to 40
 6 U.S.C. 3144, such contractor, subcontractor, or person shall be ineli-
 7 gible to submit a bid on or be awarded any public work contract with the
 8 state or any municipal corporation, public benefit corporation, or
 9 public body during such period of debarment.
 10 (ii) When the fiscal officer determines that a contractor, subcontrac-
 11 tor or person is a "substantially owned-affiliated entity", as defined
 12 by paragraph g of subdivision five of section two hundred twenty of this
 13 article, in relation to a contractor, subcontractor, or person debarred
 14 under clause (i) of this subparagraph, such substantially owned-affili-
 15 ated entity shall be ineligible to submit a bid or be awarded any public
 16 work contract with the state or any municipal corporation, public bene-
 17 fit corporation, or public body for the duration of the remaining period
 18 of debarment of such contractor, subcontractor, or person debarred under
 19 clause (i) of this subparagraph. In order for a substantially owned-af-
 20 filiated entity to be debarred pursuant to this clause, such substan-
 21 tially owned-affiliated entity must have had substantial involvement in
 22 the day to day management of the contractor, subcontractor, or person
 23 debarred under clause (i) of this subparagraph.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
