Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the allocation of costs\nof the courts and court-related agencies set forth in subdivision one of\nthis section to each political subdivision shall be as follows:\n (a) Effective for the state fiscal year beginning April first,\nnineteen hundred seventy-nine, the state comptroller shall deduct from\nany moneys payable to each such political subdivision from the local\nassistance account twenty-five percent of the amount set forth in column\nA. In the event that the judiciary budget adopted for the fiscal year\nbeginning April first, nineteen hundred seventy-nine includes an\nallocation for any political subdivision that is less than the\nappropriated budget used to calculate column A, then the deduction to\nthe locality shall be proportionately reduced. The amount to be deducted\npursuant to this paragraph, as reduced pursuant to the provisions of\nthis subdivision or any other provision of law, shall be deducted\npursuant to a plan prepared by the state comptroller with the approval\nof the state director of the budget. Such plan shall, to the extent\npracticable, provide for the amount of such deductions to coincide with\nthe state first instance payments for the expenses enumerated in\nsubdivision one of this section. In lieu of deducting such amount from\nmoneys payable from the local assistance account, the plan prepared by\nthe state comptroller with the approval of the state director of the\nbudget may provide for the rendering of monthly or bi-monthly statements\nrequiring the payment of fractional portions of such amount, and may\nprovide for the payment of interest at a rate to be fixed by the state\ncomptroller, not to exceed six percent per annum, in the event payment\nshall not be made at the time and in the amount prescribed therein.\n Net Local\n Commitment\nSub-parg.
