KRS 48.313: Status of totals and subtotals -- Priority of individual appropriations --

Correction of erroneous totals and subtotals.

Totals and subtotals given within any branch budget bill and any appropriation provision

in any other enactment are provided as a c onvenience and shall not constitute

appropriations of funds. If a total or subtotal conflicts with the sum of the appropriation

figures of which it consists, the amounts of the individual appropriations shall control. If

a conflict of this nature arises, either as a result of an inadvertent error in initial entry of a

total or subtotal or through an amendment to any of its component appropriations, the

director of the Legislative Research Commission shall apprise the reviser of statutes in

writing of the ex istence of and reason for the variation and of the correct amount of the

total or subtotal. If the requested change is within the scope of this section, the reviser of

statutes shall cause that corrected total or subtotal to be substituted in the Acts and

journals of the General Assembly and in the Kentucky Revised Statutes.
