A. When lump sum appropriations are made for personal services,

or for maintenance and operations, or for maintenance and operations

including personal services, no monies so appropriated shall be

available for payments for such expenses until a schedule of

positions and salaries and the amounts to be available for the

expenses shall have been approved by the Director of the Office of

accounting system. The provisions of this subsection shall not

apply to such appropriations for the Legislature or judiciary, for

amended with the approval of the Director of the Office of

Services shall not have authority to fix the amount of any agency

salary or eliminate any position listed on such schedule. However,

the Director shall not approve the schedule of positions and

salaries when the total amount of funds requested to be allotted

fails to reserve a sufficient balance to finance the operations of

the agency for the remainder of that fiscal year, considering any

possible failure in the revenue estimated to be collected for that

fiscal year.

E. The Director of the Office of Management and Enterprise

Services shall not have the authority to curtail the operation of

any particular part of the program, but shall order a reduction in

the total program only where insufficient revenues are anticipated

to carry on the program for the period concerned.
