Bill summary

Enacts new GS 95-12(b)(1)d. (but appears to enact new GS 96-12(b)(1)d.) to direct the Employment Security Commission (Commission) to immediately pay unpaid benefits, if an individual was awarded unemployment benefits but failed to receive the benefits due to an act or omission of the Commission. Specifies that the Commission’s failure to rectify and pay benefits owed makes the individual an aggrieved party who is not required to exhaust administrative remedies, and may obtain injunctive and other relief.
