the budget year the legislature could pass an act --
|
|
2
|
let me start over. The legislature could pass an act
|
|
3
|
that during the budget year reversions or amounts that
|
|
4
|
might revert could be switched to other departments.

Now, this could happen for all departments. It could
|
|

|
happen for the Attorney General. It could happen for

|
|
11
|
are going to be used. Now, the question is even if the
|
|
12
|
legislature passed such an act, could it apply to moneys
|
|
13
|
appropriated in the current budget for education, in
|
|
14
|
view of Section 3 of Article 8? That is the issue.

school fund, as used in Section 3 of Article S, meant
|
|
18
|
the money appropriated in the budget for school pur-

|

poses .

|
MR. CASE: That's right.

|
MR. ENEY: If it meant that, then you
