Sec. 8j. Allocation and transfer of fee receipts to General Revenue Fund. Except as otherwise provided in this Section and Section 8n of this Act, and notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, additional amounts generated by the new and increased fees created or authorized by Public Acts 93-22, 93-23, 93-24, and 93-32 shall be allocated between the fund otherwise entitled to receive the fee and the General Revenue Fund by the Governor. In determining the amount of the allocation to the General Revenue Fund, the Governor shall calculate whether the available resources in the fund are sufficient to satisfy the unexpended and unreserved appropriations from the fund for the fiscal year.

In calculating the available resources in a fund, the Governor may include receipts, transfers into the fund, and other resources anticipated to be available in the fund in that fiscal year.

Upon determining the amount of an allocation to the General Revenue Fund under this Section, the Governor may direct the State Treasurer and Comptroller to transfer the amount of that allocation from the fund in which the fee amounts have been deposited to the General Revenue Fund; provided, however, that the Governor shall not direct the transfer of any amount that would have the effect of reducing the available resources in the fund to an amount less than the amount remaining unexpended and unreserved from the total appropriation from that fund for that fiscal year.

The State Treasurer and Comptroller shall transfer the amounts designated under this Section as soon as may be practicable after receiving the direction to transfer from the Governor.

This Section does not apply to the Demutualization Trust Fund established under the Uniform Disposition of Unclaimed Property Act.

Transfers directed to be made under this Section on or before February 28, 2006 that are still pending on the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 94th General Assembly shall be redirected as provided in Section 8n of this Act.
