Transfer of allocated amounts.
(1) Upon completion of the determination by the Oregon Department of
Administrative Services under ORS 291.274 and 291.276, the department shall:
(a) Transfer to
the Legislative Fiscal Office Operating Fund, with appropriate notice to the
State Treasurer, out of moneys appropriated to each state agency, the amount of
$4,500,000; and
(b) After
deducting the amounts specified in paragraph (a) of this subsection, transfer
to the General Fund, with appropriate notice to the State Treasurer, out of
moneys appropriated to each state agency, the amount of governmental service
expenses certified for the agency.
(2) In the case
of a state agency that collects or receives moneys for fees, fines, licenses or
taxes not by law made a part of the General Fund available for general
governmental purposes, if moneys available to such state agency are not
sufficient to permit the transfers under subsection (1) of this section, the
department shall notify the state agency of the amount certified with respect
to the state agency under ORS 291.274 and 291.276, less any amount transferred
out of moneys appropriated to such state agency under subsection (1) of this
section. Thereafter, until such balance has been paid into the General Fund, 10
percent of all moneys collected or received by the state agency for fees,
fines, licenses or taxes not by law made a part of the General Fund available
for general governmental purposes shall be:
(a) Transferred
by the department to and made a part of the General Fund available for general governmental
purposes if such moneys are paid to the State Treasurer by the state agency; or
(b) Paid to the
State Treasurer by the state agency receiving such moneys at the time when they
are received by the state agency if such moneys are authorized by law to be
kept and disbursed other than by and through the State Treasurer, and be
credited by the State Treasurer to and made a part of the General Fund
available for general governmental purposes.
(3) The transfers
and payments to the Legislative Fiscal Office Operating Fund and the General
Fund required by this section shall be made notwithstanding any law that
appropriates such moneys or any of them to any other purposes, and such portion
so paid and transferred is not subject to any special uses thereby provided. [1967
