Supplementing and amending appropriations to the Department of Health and Department of Human Services
This bill directs the West Virginia Legislature to allocate remaining state funds from the 2024 fiscal year to the Department of Health and the Department of Human Services for use in fiscal year 2025. It specifically authorizes the transfer of unspent money from various programs, such as emergency response, medical cannabis, and drug control, to their corresponding accounts in the new budget year. Additionally, the measure grants the Department of Health Secretary limited authority to move up to five percent of funds between specific budget categories, while prohibiting transfers into the employee benefits account. These changes ensure that leftover money is utilized for its intended purposes rather than remaining idle in the state treasury.
