The State Bond Commission is hereby authorized to issue refunding bonds, hereinafter referred to as "refunding bonds", for the purpose of providing funds to refund outstanding bonds of the state including, but not by way of limitation, amounts required for principal, interest to the maturity or redemption date, and call premium. If the refunding bonds carry an effective interest rate lower than that borne by the bonds being refunded and result in a net savings to the state after payment of all associated costs, there shall be no limit as to the amount of bonds that may be refunded by the issuance of refunding bonds pursuant to the authority of this Section.
