Transfer of allocated amounts.

(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.
