The bill establishes a framework for a continuous state budget that remains in effect until the legislature amends, lapses, or eliminates existing appropriations. It stipulates that if no changes are made by July 1 of any year, appropriations from the previous fiscal year will automatically carry over into the new fiscal year. Additionally, it allows the Department of Administration to adjust appropriation account structures for state agencies if the biennial budget has not been enacted by June 30. The bill also clarifies that appropriations requiring approval from certain state entities are conditional and outlines the process for lapsing appropriations that are no longer necessary.

Furthermore, the bill introduces temporary reallocations of funds, with specific limitations on the amounts that can be reallocated from the state general fund and other special revenue funds. It sets a cap of $400 million for reallocations to accounts or funds other than the state general fund and allows for an additional 3% reallocation under certain conditions. The bill also mandates that the Secretary of Administration consult with relevant budgetary authorities before executing these reallocations and requires monthly reporting on any outstanding reallocations. Lastly, it repeals a specific section of a previous Senate bill effective July 1, 2030, and asserts that the provisions of this act will take effect upon publication in the Kansas register.
