REVISOR'S NOTE: Subsection (a) of this section is new
language derived without substantive change from
former Art. 88C, § 2(a) and, as it related to the
capital budget, (g) and the ninth sentence of § 6.

Subsections (b) through (d) of this section are new
language derived without substantive change from
former Art. 31, § 27(c) and (d).

In subsection (a) of this section, the reference to "a
draft" is added to clarify that the Department of
State Planning provides technical assistance, but the
Governor determines the content of this budget. This
addition conforms this section to § 7-104 of this
article.

Also in subsection (a) of this section, the clause
"the part of the consolidated loan budget that relates
to general construction projects" is substituted for
the former references to "the annual capital budget",
since the Department of State Planning indicates that
the "capital budget" is only 1 part of the
"consolidated loan budget". The Commission to Revise
the Annotated Code notes, for consideration by the
General Assembly, that the Department also indicates
