It is the purpose of this article to authorize the establishment of procedures for the transfer of bonds between funds in the State Treasury in the following cases:
(a) When bonds held as investments by a fund in the State Treasury are to be sold by such fund to, and purchased for, another State Treasury fund; or
(b) When, under any provision of law, a specific amount of cash is required to be paid from a fund in the State Treasury holding bond investments to another State Treasury fund, and it is in the interest of the State to transfer all or part of such amount in bonds, in lieu of cash, because the amount of cash required to be transferred is not needed for the immediate use of the fund to which such amount is required to be paid.
