MS HB1117

Requires the Personal Service Contract Review Board to promulgate rules and regulations for the procurement of advertising by all state agencies without regard to purchase value.

Defines "advertising" as state agency purchases of promotional space or time in media (newspapers, radio, television, billboards, internet, etc.) to promote agency programs, excluding classified employment ads and legal notices.

Mandates the Personal Service Contract Review Board review all proposed state agency advertising contracts before they become effective to ensure compliance with board regulations.

Applies advertising procurement standards to all state agencies uniformly, establishing oversight procedures similar to existing personal and professional services contract requirements.
