141141 2 General Assembly shall not enact appropriations that exceed
142142 3 the resources estimated to be available, as provided in this

178178 3 associated with the recognition of Section 25 of the State
179179 4 Finance Act liabilities. For any budgeted fund for which

181181 6 the surplus shall be considered to be a resource available for
182182 7 expenditure in the budgeted fiscal year.
183183 8 Expenditure estimates for the budgeted funds included in
184184 9 the State budget shall include the costs to be incurred by the

186186 11 year, excluding costs paid in the budgeted year which were
187187 12 carried over from the prior year, where the payment is
188188 13 authorized by Section 25 of the State Finance Act. For any
189189 14 budgeted fund for which expenditures are expected to exceed
190190 15 revenues in the current fiscal year, the deficit shall be
191191 16 considered as a use of funds in the budgeted fiscal year.
192192 17 Revenues and expenditures shall also include transfers
193193 18 between funds that are based on revenues received or costs
194194 19 incurred during the budget year.

197197 22 that are expected to be incurred during the budgeted fiscal
198198 23 year.
199199 24 By March 15 of each year, the Commission on Government

227227 16 State. Appropriations for a fiscal year shall not exceed
228228 17 revenue estimated by the General Assembly to be available
229229 18 during that year. Except for deficiency or emergency
230230 19 appropriations, all appropriations are expendable only

232232 21 except that the General Assembly may provide for

252252 5 year shall not exceed the State's revenues and reserves in

254254 7 obligation, for that year. No debt obligation, except as
255255 8 shall be repaid within the fiscal year of issuance, shall
256256 9 be authorized for the current operation of any service or
257257 10 program, nor shall the proceeds of any debt obligation be
258258 11 expended for a purpose other than that for which it was
259259 12 authorized.
