PHASE I TOBACCO SETTLEMENT 16 
(1) General Purpose: This Part prescribes the policy implementing aspects of the 17 
national settlement agreement between the tobacco industry and the collective states as 18 
described in KRS 248.701 to 248.727. In furtherance of that agreement, the General 19 
Assembly recognizes that the Commonwealth of Kentucky is a party to the Phase I 20 
Master Settlement Agreement (MSA) between the Participating Tobacco Manufacturers 21 
and 46 Settling States which provides reimbursement to states for smoking-related 22 
expenditures made over time. 23 
(2) State's MSA Share: The Commonwealth’s share of the MSA is equal to 24 
1.7611586 percent of the total settlement amount. Payments under the MSA are made to 25 
the states annually in April of each year. 26 
(3) MSA Payment Amount Variables: The total settlement amount to be 27  UNOFFICIAL COPY  	22 RS BR 1174

provided in the MSA, including inflation adjustments, volume adjustments, previously 2 
settled states adjustments, and the nonparticipating manufacturers adjustment. 3 
(4) Distinct Identity of MSA Payment Deposits: The General Assembly has 4 
determined that it shall be the policy of the Commonwealth that all Phase I Tobacco 5 
Settlement payments shall be deposited to the credit of the General Fund and shall 6 
maintain a distinct identity as Phase I Tobacco Settlement payments that shall not lapse to 7 
the credit of the General Fund surplus but shall continue forward from each fiscal year to 8 
the next fiscal year to the extent that any balance is unexpended. 9 
(5) MSA Payment Estimates and Adjustments: Based on the official estimates 10 
of the Consensus Forecasting Group, the amount of MSA payments expected to be 11 
received in fiscal year 2021-2022 is $114,900,000 and in fiscal year 2022-2023 is 12 
$108,400,000 and in fiscal year 2023-2024 is $102,200,000. It is recognized that 13 
payments to be received by the Commonwealth are estimated and are subject to change. If 14 
MSA payments received are less than the official estimates, appropriation reductions 15 
shall be applied as follows: after exempting appropriations for debt service, the Attorney 16 
General, and the Department of Revenue, 50 percent to the Agricultural Development 17 
Fund, 33 percent to the Early Childhood Development Fund, and 17 percent to the Health 18 
Care Improvement Fund. If MSA payments received exceed the official estimates, 19 
appropriation increases shall be applied as follows: after exempting appropriations for 20 
debt service, the Attorney General, and the Department of Revenue, 50 percent to the 21 
Agricultural Development Fund, 33 percent to the Early Childhood Development Fund, 22
