The legislature shall annually state in the appropriation for the educational support program/division of operations the estimate of the total discretionary funding provided per support unit. The department of education shall, before the end of each fiscal year, calculate the actual discretionary funding available per support unit.
(1) If the total estimated discretionary funding per support unit stated in the appropriation for the educational support program/division of operations is lower than the actual discretionary funding available per support unit, then the state controller shall multiply the difference by the number of actual support units, and transfer the result from the public school income fund to the public education stabilization fund and the final distributions to school districts from the department of education shall be reduced by a like amount.
(2) If the total estimated discretionary funding per support unit stated in the appropriation for the educational support program/division of operations is greater than the actual discretionary funding available per support unit, then the state controller shall multiply the difference by the number of actual support units, and transfer the result from the public education stabilization fund to the public school income fund. This transfer shall be limited to moneys available in the public education stabilization fund. Moneys transferred from the public education stabilization fund to the public school income fund under the provisions of this section are hereby continuously appropriated for the educational support program/division of operations.
