THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:

 

     Sec. 21. (1) Except as provided in subsections (2), (3), (4),

 

and (5), otherwise provided in this section, all money received and

to be disbursed only by appropriations by the legislature.

 

     (2) The collections from the use tax imposed at the additional

 

rate of 2% approved by the electors March 15, 1994 shall be

 

deposited in the state school aid fund established in section 11 of

 

article IX of the state constitution of 1963.

 


     (3) From the money received and collected under this act for

 

the state share, an amount equal to all revenue lost under the

 

state education tax act, 1993 PA 331, MCL 211.901 to 211.906, and

 

all revenue lost from basic school operating mills as a result of

 

the exemption of personal property under sections 9m, 9n, and 9o of

 

the general property tax act, 1893 PA 206, MCL 211.9m, 211.9n, and

 

211.9o, as determined by the department, shall be deposited into

 

the state school aid fund established by section 11 of article IX

Michigan, 1945 PA 327, MCL 259.35.

 

     (6) From the money received and collected under this act for

year and shall make any necessary adjustments, positive or


negative, to the amounts to be distributed for the next successive

 

calendar quarter that begins January 1. The state treasurer or his

 

or her designee shall annually provide to the operator of each
