The Controller General shall provide notice to the Registrar of Regulations that the moneys were appropriated."

In accordance with Section 3 of Senate Bill 283, notice is hereby given that sufficient funds have been appropriated in the current fiscal year to implement the provisions of Section 3 effective June 30, 2024.
