This bill proposes to transfer $1,192,452 from the Attorney General Consumer Protection Recovery Fund (fund 1509) to the surplus balance of the State Fund, General Revenue, for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. The legislation recognizes that the current balance in the Attorney General's fund exceeds the necessary amount for its intended purposes. Consequently, the bill aims to make this surplus available for appropriation during the fiscal year.
Additionally, the bill includes a supplementary appropriation to the Department of Health's Central Office (fund 0407) by establishing a new line item for the Tobacco Education Program, which will receive the transferred amount of $1,192,452. This amendment to the appropriations for the fiscal year 2025 is intended to enhance funding for health initiatives related to tobacco education.
