§ 49. Segregation of lump sum appropriations. When, in any act, lump sum appropriations are made for personal service, or for maintenance and operation or for non-personal service, or for maintenance undistributed including personal service, other than such appropriations for the legislature or judiciary, and appropriations from proprietary or fiduciary funds, no moneys so appropriated shall be available for payments for personal service, or maintenance and operation or for non-personal service, or maintenance undistributed including personal service until a schedule of positions and salaries have been approved by the director of the budget and the amounts to be available for other personal service classes of expenditure and for the expenses of maintenance and operation or for non-personal service shall have been approved by the director of the budget. Such approval shall be reported to the chairperson of the senate finance committee, the chairperson of the assembly ways and means committee, and the state comptroller either by the filing of a certificate or, with the consent of the officer receiving such notice, by means of electronic data transfer in lieu of a certification. Any such approved schedule may be amended, however, with notice of approval of the director of the budget given in the same manner as set forth in the preceding sentence.
