Title

Children First Trust Fund, receipts allocated for State Board of Education transferred to General Fund during fiscal year ending 2011

Summary

This bill would temporarily transfer part of the Children First Trust Fund receipts that are currently allocated to the State Board of Education into the State General Fund for fiscal year 2011.

What This Bill Does

The bill directs that the portion of Children First Trust Fund receipts allocated to the State Board of Education be moved to the State General Fund during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011. It overrides existing law for that year to allow the transfer. As a result, SBOE would receive less funding from the Trust Fund in FY2011, while the General Fund would receive an equivalent increase for that year.

Who It Affects

• State Board of Education – would receive reduced funding from the Children First Trust Fund in fiscal year 2011 due to the transfer.
• State General Fund – would receive additional funds in fiscal year 2011 from the transferred Children First Trust Fund receipts.
• Children First Trust Fund – would lose the portion of receipts designated for SBOE in fiscal year 2011.

Key Provisions

• Section 1: Notwithstanding any law, the portion of Children First Trust Fund receipts currently allocated for the State Board of Education shall be transferred from the Children First Trust Fund to the State General Fund during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011.
• Section 2: The act becomes effective immediately upon passage and approval by the Governor, or otherwise becomes law.
