Iran Divestment Act Follow-Up


In addition to the information provided by the Local Government Commission regarding the Iran Divestment Act posted on the FBS website, LEAs have inquired whether the state would be collecting certification statements from vendors to fulfill the LEA requirement.


DPI legal staff have stated that compliance with the Iran Divestment Act is a local process and suggests that LEAs work with their local board counsel to ensure they have the documentation and statements necessary from all vendors in order to comply with this Act.


If you have any questions, contact the Local Government Commission at (919) 814-4300.
