SECTION 12. COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER LAWS. Disbursement of funds 8
authorized by this act shall be limited to the appropriation for such agency 9
and funds made available by law for the support of such appropriations; and 10
the restrictions of the State Procurement Law, the General Accounting and 11
Budgetary Procedures Law, the Revenue Stabilization Law, the Regular Salary 12
Procedures and Restrictions Act, the Higher Education Expenditure Restriction 13
Act, or their successors, and other fiscal control laws of this State, where 14
applicable, and regulations promulgated by the Department of Finance and 15
Administration, as authorized by law, shall be strictly complied with in 16
disbursement of said funds. 17
18
SECTION 13. LEGISLATIVE INTENT. It is the intent of the General 19
Assembly that any funds disbursed under the authority of the appropriations 20
contained in this act shall be in compliance with the stated reasons for 21
which this act was adopted, as evidenced by the Agency Requests, Executive 22
Recommendations and Legislative Recommendations contained in the budget 23
manuals prepared by the Department of Finance and Administration, letters, or 24
summarized oral testimony in the official minutes of the Arkansas Legislative 25
Council or Joint Budget Committee which relate to its passage and adoption. 26
27
SECTION 14. EMERGENCY CLAUSE. It is found and determined by the 28
General Assembly, that the Constitution of the State of Arkansas prohibits 29
the appropriation of funds for more than a one (1) year period; that the 30
effectiveness of this Act on July 1, 2025 is essential to the operation of 31
the agency for which the appropriations in this Act are provided, and that in 32
the event of an extension of the legislative session, the delay in the 33
effective date of this Act beyond July 1, 2025 could work irreparable harm 34
upon the proper administration and provision of essential governmental 35
programs. Therefore, an emergency is hereby declared to exist and this Act 36 SB129
20 01/27/2025 1:30:04 PM HAR032
being necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health 1
and safety shall be in full force and effect from and after July 1, 2025. 2
