State law to the contrary, the Governor
may, through | 11 |
| June 30, 2007, from time to time direct the State Treasurer and | 12 |
| Comptroller to transfer
a specified sum from any fund held by | 13 |
| the State Treasurer to the General
Revenue Fund in order to | 14 |
| help defray the State's operating costs for the
