Where there are  not sufficient funds available within an appropriate budget item, then the  State Highway Commissioner may, with the approval of the State House  Commission, transfer funds from one item to another.  Where the best interests  of the State require that a project, not heretofore included in a program as  provided in the afore-mentioned section 52:22-20, shall be substituted for a  project within a program, then the State Highway Commissioner is authorized,  with the approval of the State House Commission, to make such substitution.\nL.1938, c. 10, p. 41, s. 4.","path":["TITLE 59 CLAIMS AGAINST PUBLIC ENTITIES"],"source_url":"https://pub.njleg.state.nj.us/statutes/STATUTES-TEXT.zip","current_through":"P.L.2025, c.405, and J.R.22","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-08-27T17:54:13Z","sha256":"a16ad3c351b91ef8df130c98a1d7227984d066f98b1f05744e18f736329ece0f","source_id":"us-nj","stale":true,"prev":"us-nj/n.j.-stat.-app.a-3-32","next":"us-nj/n.j.-stat.-app.a-3-34"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
