Every bill and every joint resolution which has passed the Legislature shall be presented to the Governor in the same text as that

in which it passed the Legislature and it shall be acted upon by the Governor accordingly but any bill or joint resolution in which material enclosed in bold-faced

brackets is included shall, if it becomes law, be construed as though the material

the first page of the bill or joint resolution indicating that material so included

is intended to be omitted from the bill or joint resolution, when it becomes law. In addition, every annual appropriations bill which has passed the Legislature that

may include one or more displays of summaries of items of appropriations as may appear

within the bill shall not, if the bill becomes law, be construed as though the material

so included within any display of summaries of items of appropriations constitutes

any part of the act and a legend shall be affixed to the bottom of the first page

of the bill indicating that material included within any display is intended to be

for the purpose of displaying summaries of the items of appropriations set forth elsewhere
