Because of the many revenue laws of the state providing for the levying and collecting of taxes, licenses, and fees for the support of state government and its agencies and enacted by the General Assembly, it is declared to be the policy of the General Assembly with respect to all such revenues and other state income which is required by law to be deposited into the State Treasury to provide for the handling and deposit of the funds in the manner provided in the Revenue Classification Law, § 19-6-101 et seq., and in this chapter in the following manner:
(1) To declare the objects and purposes for which the general revenues as defined in the Revenue Classification Law, § 19-6-101 et seq., and other incomes individually and collectively are to be used. It is the intent and purpose of this section and other provisions of this chapter to comply with the provisions of the Arkansas Constitution, including Arkansas Constitution, Article 16, § 11;
(2) Because of the fact that the constitutional and fiscal agencies of the state and certain other defined agencies or programs, either individually or collectively, render services to every state department, board, commission, institution, agency, or activity supported from revenues deposited into the State Treasury, it is declared to be the policy of the General Assembly that all taxes, licenses, and fees defined as general revenues and special revenues under the provisions of the Revenue Classification Law, § 19-6-101 et seq., shall contribute to the support of such constitutional and fiscal agencies and other defined agencies in the proportion and for the purposes as provided by law for the payment of such services;
(3) As to the taxes, licenses, fees, and other revenues contributing to the general revenues as defined in the Revenue Classification Law, § 19-6-101 et seq., it is not the purpose of this chapter to levy or to change the amount or rate of such taxes, but to state the purpose for which such general revenues are to be used. This chapter shall not be construed as amending any of the provisions of the law with respect to such taxes defined to be general revenues except for the purpose of providing for the distribution of them and defining the purposes for which such revenues are raised and collected; and
(4) As to the special taxes, licenses, fees, and other revenues contributing to the special revenues as provided in the Revenue Classification Law, § 19-6-101 et seq., it is not the intent of the Revenue Classification Law, § 19-6-101 et seq., or of this chapter to levy or change the amount or rate of such taxes nor to change the purposes for which such special revenues are to be used as provided by law. This chapter shall not be construed as amending any of the provisions of the law with respect to the special revenues as defined in this chapter, except for the purpose of providing for the distribution of them and providing that the purposes for which such revenues are collected shall also include the services rendered to the constitutional and fiscal agencies and other defined agencies in the manner provided in the Revenue Classification Law, § 19-6-101 et seq., and in this chapter.
