Senate Bill 803

By Senators Carmichael (Mr. President) and Prezioso

(By Request of the executive)

[Passed March 3, 2020; in effect from passage]

AN ACT supplementing and amending the appropriations of public moneys out of the State Treasury in the State Fund, General Revenue, to the Department of Health and Human Resources, Division of Health, Central Office, fund 0407, fiscal year 2020, organization 0506, by supplementing and amending the appropriations for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2020.

Whereas, Senate Bill 386, passed during the 2017 Regular Legislative Session, created the West Virginia Medical Cannabis Act, placing the Medical Cannabis Program within the Department of Health and Human Resources, and under the direction of the Bureau for Public Health; and

Whereas, The Bureau for Public Health required the ability to transfer General Revenue-funded appropriations to its Special Revenue-funded appropriation for proper administration of the Medical Cannabis Program; and 

Whereas, The Legislature passed Senate Bill 1038 during the First Extraordinary Legislative Session of 2019, requiring the General Revenue appropriation to the Bureau for Public Health for the Medical Cannabis Program be transferred to its Special Revenue-funded appropriation; and

Whereas, It has been determined that the General Revenue appropriation to the Bureau for Public Health for the Medical Cannabis Program should remain in the General Revenue Fund; therefore

Be it enacted by the Legislature of West Virginia:

That the total appropriation for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2020, to fund 0407, fiscal year 2020, organization 0506, be supplemented and amended to read as follows:
