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

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

12 Recommendations and Legislative Recommendations contained in the budget

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

24 upon the proper administration and provision of essential governmental

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

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

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