ANEW SECTION. Sec. 2.  For the fiscal biennium ending June 30, 2001, the sum of two million five hundred thousand dollars, or so much thereof as may be necessary, is appropriated from the general fund--state and the sum of five hundred thousand dollars, or so much thereof as may be necessary, is appropriated from the public safety and education account to the superintendent of public instruction for matching grants to enhance security in schools.  These appropriations are a supplement to the five million nine hundred twenty three thousand dollar appropriation for school security contained in section 501(2)(e), chapter 309, laws of 1999, and shall be expended in the same manner and for the same purposes.@

EFFECT:  The appropriation to supplement school security grants consists of $2.5 million general fund--state (GFS) and $500,000 Public Safety and Education Account (PSEA), rather than $3.0 million GFS.  With the amendment, total appropriations in the bill are $6.5 million GFS and $500,000 PSEA.
