11  SECTION 6. LEGISLATIVE INTENT. It is the intent of the General

14 which this act was adopted, as evidenced by the Agency Requests, Executive

15 Recommendations and Legislative Recommendations contained in the budget

17 summarized oral testimony in the official minutes of the Arkansas Legislative

18 Council or Joint Budget Committee which relate to its passage and adoption.

20  SECTION 7. EMERGENCY CLAUSE. It is found and determined by the General

21 Assembly, that the Constitution of the State of Arkansas prohibits the

22 appropriation of funds for more than a one (1) year period; that the

23 effectiveness of this Act on July 1, 2025 is essential to the operation of

24 the agency for which the appropriations in this Act are provided, and that in

25 the event of an extension of the legislative session, the delay in the

26 effective date of this Act beyond July 1, 2025 could work irreparable harm

27 upon the proper administration and provision of essential governmental

28 programs. Therefore, an emergency is hereby declared to exist and this Act

29 being necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health

30 and safety shall be in full force and effect from and after July 1, 2025.
