There is hereby created in the state treasury a fund to be known as the community supervision supplemental fund, which shall consist of moneys appropriated by the general assembly. All moneys in the fund shall be subject to withdrawal by the department of corrections, the judicial department, or the department of public safety for the purpose of continuing community supervision, such as parole supervision, probation supervision, community corrections programs, or home electronic monitoring over offenders who would otherwise be removed to secure custody due to lack of resources. Such moneys may be withdrawn upon a request by the department of corrections, the judicial department, or the department of public safety which is made to the director of the office of state planning and budgeting. The director of the office of state planning and budgeting, in consultation with the joint budget committee, shall approve or disapprove the request made by each department and budget the amount of such request. Any withdrawal approved by the director of the office of state planning and budgeting shall be dispersed to the department making the request.
