amendment related to the Controller's allocation of funds
deposited into the California Work Opportunity and
Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKS) Maintenance of Effort
Subaccount.
Senate Floor Amendments of 8/21/12 delete the provisions of
the bill dealing with the high-speed rail. The amendments
now constitute the bill.
ANALYSIS : Existing law, commencing with the 2012-13
fiscal year, requires the Controller to allocate 96.015% of
the funds allocated to the Juvenile Justice Subaccount from
the Local Revenue Fund 2011 to the YOBG Special Account,
and to allocate 3.085% of the funds in that subaccount to
the JRG Special Account, as specified.
This bill instead requires the Controller to allocate
94.481% of the funds described above to the YOBG Special
Account, and to allocate 5.519% to the JRG Special Account.
Existing law requires the Controller to allocate to the
CalWORKs Maintenance of Effort Subaccount of each local
health and welfare trust fund the amounts deposited and
remaining unexpended and unreserved in the Maintenance of
Effort Subaccount on the 15th day of each month.
This bill instead requires the Controller to allocate to
the CalWORKs Maintenance of Effort Subaccount of each local
health and welfare trust fund the amounts deposited into
the Maintenance of Effort Subaccount.
This bill declares that it is to take effect immediately as
a bill providing for appropriations related to the Budget
Bill.
