the manner provided in this Section when the balance remaining in one or
more such line item appropriations is insufficient for the purpose for
which the appropriation was made.

(a-1) No transfers may be made from one
agency to another agency, nor may transfers be made from one institution
of higher education to another institution of higher education except as provided by subsection (a-4).

(a-2) Except as otherwise provided in this Section, transfers may be made only among the objects of expenditure enumerated
in this Section, except that no funds may be transferred from any
appropriation for personal services, from any appropriation for State
contributions to the State Employees' Retirement System, from any

(a-3) Further, if an agency receives a separate
appropriation for employee retirement contributions paid by the employer,
any transfer by that agency into an appropriation for personal services
must be accompanied by a corresponding transfer into the appropriation for
employee retirement contributions paid by the employer, in an amount
sufficient to meet the employer share of the employee contributions
required to be remitted to the retirement system.

(a-4) Long-Term Care Rebalancing.  The Governor may designate amounts set aside for institutional services appropriated from the General Revenue Fund or any other State fund that receives monies for long-term care services to be transferred to all State agencies responsible for the administration of community-based long-term care programs, including, but not limited to, community-based long-term care programs administered by the Department of Healthcare and Family Services, the Department of Human Services, and the Department on Aging, provided that the Director of Healthcare and Family Services first certifies that the amounts being transferred are necessary for the purpose of assisting persons in or at risk of being in institutional care to transition to community-based settings, including the financial data needed to prove the need for the transfer of funds. The total amounts transferred shall not exceed 4% in total of the amounts appropriated from the General Revenue Fund or any other State fund that receives monies for long-term care services for each fiscal year. A notice of the fund transfer must be made to the General Assembly and posted at a minimum on the Department of Healthcare and Family Services website, the Governor's Office of Management and Budget website, and any other website the Governor sees fit.
