(1) There is hereby appropriated from the money in the state treasury an amount equal to one hundred per cent of spending levels equal to the second foundation payment made in June of 2009 for appropriation item 200550, Foundation Funding.

(7) No money is appropriated for any purpose for which appropriations are made elsewhere in this act.

(9) No money is appropriated for purposes that have full fiscal year 2010 appropriations by another act of the General Assembly.
(D) There is hereby appropriated for the period July 8, 2009, through July 14, 2009, to the legislative and judicial branches and their respective agencies seventy per cent of one-fifty second of those agencies' adjusted spending levels for the 2009 fiscal year as adjusted by all budget directives issued by the Office of Budget and Management pursuant to the Executive Order 2008-01S.
(E) Where additional amounts are necessary to pay the wages, benefits, and other payroll-related expenses of state employees who are paid directly by warrant of the Director of Budget and Management, including elected state officials, those additional amounts are hereby appropriated.
The Director of Budget and Management shall make any determinations necessary to decide which provision applies from this section. All appropriations contained in this act shall be cumulative with any subsequent appropriation act of the 128th General Assembly, and the Director of Budget and Management shall account for expenditures from appropriations contained in this act accordingly.
