(a)The intent of the Legislature in enacting this article is to provide supplemental or additional services to the social and rehabilitative services in Article 6 (commencing with Section 12250) of this chapter. The Legislature further intends that necessary in-home supportive services shall be provided in a uniform manner in every county based on individual need consistent with this chapter and, for the 1992–93 fiscal year the appropriation provided for those services in the Budget Act, in the absence of alternative in-home supportive services provided by an able and willing individual or local agency at no cost to the recipient, except as required under Section 12304.5. An able spouse who is available to assist the recipient shall be deemed willing to provide at no cost any services under this article except nonmedical personal services and paramedical services. When a spouse leaves full-time employment or is prevented from obtaining full-time employment because no other suitable provider is available and where the inability of the provider to provide supportive services may result in inappropriate placement or inadequate care, the spouse shall also be paid for accompaniment when needed during necessary travel to health-related appointments and protective supervision.
(b)Each county shall be notified of its allocation and projected caseload by July 31 of each fiscal year, or 30 days after the enactment of the Budget Act, whichever occurs later.
(c)This section shall remain operative until July 1, 1993, and on and after that date, shall remain inoperative until July 1, 1994, at which date, this section shall become operative.
