Section 5 of the bill would amend the Texas Education Agency bill pattern in Article III of the General Appropriations Act.
Other sections of the bill would make appropriations contingent upon the passage of other legislation.
Section 5 of the bill would make an appropriation to the Texas Education Agency of $15.7 billion in General Revenue, $18.8 billion in All Funds, in fiscal year 2012 and $13.4 billion in General Revenue, $16.6 billion in All Funds, in fiscal year 2013 for the purpose of funding payments to school districts for state aid under the Foundation School Program (FSP).
These appropriated amounts include adjustments referenced in subsections c, d, and e of Section 5 of the bill, reflecting updated estimates of projected FSP costs (subsection c), the assumption of a decrease in cost in FY2013 of $2.3 billion contingent on enactment of legislation enabling deferral of the August 2013 FSP payment to the following fiscal year (subsection d), and the assumption of voter approval of the constitutional amendment associated with and subsequent transfer of funds from the General Land Office to the Available School Fund pursuant to the provisions of HJR 109, Eighty-second Legislature, Regular Session, 2011 (subsection e).
The appropriation made in this bill is contingent on enactment of legislation amending Chapter 42 of the Texas Education Code to adjust state aid payments to the level of appropriation. For purposes of this estimate, the cost of the Foundation School Program is estimated at $15.7 billion in General Revenue, $18.8 billion in All Funds, in fiscal year 2012 and $13.4 billion in General Revenue, $16.6 billion in All Funds, in fiscal year 2013.
Other sections of the bill would make appropriations contingent upon the passage of other legislation.
