Surplus funds for state corrections operations

It provides $6,642,874 for Information Technology Services and $5,002,392 for Special Services (Fund 0450, Org 0608). The money comes from the unappropriated surplus in the State Fund, General Revenue, and takes effect upon passage. This supports agency operations and staff, not direct payments to households.
