(30 ILCS 105/23) (from Ch. 127, par. 159)
Sec. 23.
The item "contingencies," when used in an appropriation act,
shall include expenditures for purposes either not covered in any other
item or for which the amount appropriated in such other item is or becomes
insufficient.
When an appropriation to any department, office or institution for any
specific purpose becomes insufficient, and it is deemed necessary to expend
funds out of a contingency appropriation to such department, office or
institution to provide for the insufficiency, the State Comptroller may,
upon approval of the Governor, transfer from such contingency appropriation
to the appropriation which is or becomes insufficient, such amount as may
be required; provided, that transfers to be made from appropriations to
elected constitutional State officers for contingencies and transfers to be
made from appropriations to the board of trustees of the University of
Illinois may be made by such officers or such board of trustees without the
approval of the Governor.
