Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. Every appropriation in addition to that
provided for in the proposed budget must be embodied in a separate bill and
must be limited to some single work, object or purpose stated in the bill.
2. A supplementary appropriation is not
valid if it exceeds the amount in the State Treasury available for the
appropriation, unless the Legislature making the appropriation provides the
necessary revenue to pay the appropriation by a tax, direct or indirect, to be
laid and collected as directed by the Legislature. The tax must not exceed the
rates permitted under the Constitution of the State of Nevada. This provision
does not apply to appropriations to suppress insurrections, defend the State,
or assist in defending the United States in time of war.
3. An appropriation of money must not be
made or a level of salary or other expenditure established which is contingent
upon the attainment, during the biennium in which the money is to be expended
or the salary or level of expenditure is to be effective, of a specified
balance in the State General Fund.
4. The revenues and other resources of any
fund are subject to legislative authorization or appropriation and legislative
review for each fiscal period except where that procedure conflicts with the
Constitution or an express provision of statute.
