| 94-s-3370 | 94 | s | 3370 | A bill to amend the Small Business Investment Act of 1958 to increase the authorization for the Surety Bond Guarantee Fund. | Commerce | 1976-05-04 | 1976-07-20 | Referred to House Committee on Small Business. | Senate | Sen. Proxmire, William [D-WI] | WI | D | P000553 | 2 | (Measure passed Senate, amended) Amends the Small Business Investment Act to increase the authorization for the Surety Bond Guarantee Fund by $31,500,000, (from $56,500,000 to $88,000,000). Revises the definition of the term guarantee to mean that the Small Business Administration will pay to sureties a sum not to exceed 90 percent of any loss incurred by reason of its execution of a bond. Requires that payments made by the Administration after the default or bankruptcy of a surety shall be made directly to the obligee and not to the surety's trustee in bankruptcy. Increases to $25,000 the minimum amount of any contract on a public works building requiring a bond. | 2025-01-14T18:20:21Z |
