(b) The Office of State Publishing may print checks and other printed matter necessary for the operation of any industry board or state agricultural district board at the expense of the state.

(c) To reduce duplication of staff resources and to provide consistency in the review for appropriateness of advertisements, an agency of the state that was not authorized to accept paid advertising in its publications before January 1, 2006, shall use the services of the Office of State Publishing for all paid advertising in its publications.

(d) Funds derived from the placement of paid advertisements on agency literature or publications pursuant to this section shall be available to the agency, upon appropriation by the Legislature, to fund agency operations.

(e) The Office of State Publishing shall not accept or authorize any paid advertisements in materials printed or published for the Secretary of State.

(f) The authorization provided in subdivision (a) to the Office of State Publishing shall apply to materials printed or published for an executive branch agency administered by a constitutional officer other than the Governor only upon the written consent of the director of the agency or his or her designee. The director or his or her designee may revoke this consent at any time in a writing appropriately delivered to the Office of State Publishing.
