LB 460 creates the Nebraska Council on Economic Education Cash Fund. The fund would be managed by the University of Nebraska

[Sec. 2 (7)]. LB 460 also states intent to appropriate $300,000 to the NU Bo ard of Regents for each year of the upcoming biennium to 
be used for expenses re	lated to the Nebraska Council on Economic Education within the University of Nebraska.

COMMENTS:  Disagree with the Attorney General’s estimate of impact from LB 460. The transfer from the State 
Settlement Cash Fund would result in a revenue loss instead of an expense increase. Additionally, as written, the 
transfer would occur before the conclusion of the current fiscal year. 
TECHNICAL NOTE: The current appropriation language is expressed as intent. The fiscal impact assessment assumes 
an accompanying A-bill articulating appropriation in accordance with §49-804.
